Joe Biden has revealed that Canada getting vaccines from the U.S. could happen again and he's going to try and help our country.

While announcing on April 21 that his country has reached a milestone of 200 million doses administered, Biden said that he's looking at what can be done with doses that aren't being used.

Biden said that he had spoken on the phone with "a fella who's working really hard to take care of his country." He then revealed that the person was Justin Trudeau

"We helped a little bit there. We're going to try and help some more," Biden said about Canada.

He noted that while this is something being looked at, the U.S. doesn't have enough vaccine doses right now to be able to send them to other countries.
