The ministers also discussed the importance of collaboration around the distribution of an eventual vaccine.

As the world enters the next phase of the response, the ministers discussed the need to take stock of the impacts of the crisis, the measures taken to date and the importance of advancing concrete solutions in order to respond to the significant human and economic costs of the COVID-19 pandemic.

Minister Champagne invited his colleagues from the Ministerial Coordination Group to meet in Canada when health conditions permit to discuss the post-COVID-19 world and launch a much-needed discussion on reforms to multilateral institutions and building a better, greener and more inclusive future.
