🇨🇦 Contrary to the claims in this video, Canada's government did not require provinces or territories to agree to implementation of digital identifications to access new federal health funding

on February 13 and agreed to improve the way health information is collected, stored and shared and to implement common practices for health data, but there are not plans to use this in digital identification documents.
