Documentation that you can carry with you, either on your phone or in your wallet, proving that you have been fully vaxxed will be necessary for us to return to something resembling the normalcy we all enjoyed before March 13, 2020.
Unfortunately, there are too many provincial governments in this country that have resisted them for a number of reason, but mostly because they fear the backlash of the anti-vaxxers that make up a sizable chunk of their electoral base.
So the Prime Minister did what all Prime Ministers do when they want the Premiers to do something. He offered them cash. It is as Canadian as maple syrup, tar sands oil and mowing the lawn during a snow flurry.
Will it work? For some yes. For others maybe not.

And in return he got mobbed by a pack of roaring anti-vax hyenas. I know you're doubtful of the public polls, but assuming they're correct, the party that those anti-vax hyenas support is currently in the driver's seat with just three weeks left.
I really, really hope this is a Hail Mary that marks a reset for the Liberal campaign, but when you look at the media's reactions and framing of it, I'm not optimistic.
They went so far as to fault him for inciting the mob by being "intolerant." If he leans into the issue too much they'll condemn him for running a "negative campaign." The US media did this by blaming Democrats for supposed insensitivity towards Trump supporters. The Canadian media is doing the same by blaming Trudeau for insensitivity towards bigots and anti-vaxers. None dare call them Conservative.
This is not a good place for Canada to be, and if the CPC manage to steal the football it will only get worse.
