The G-7 summit is now underway in Cornwall, England, with leaders expressing hope to end the COVID-19 pandemic by next year.

Prime Minister Justin Trudeau met with British Prime Minister Boris Johnson this morning.

The UK is expecting leaders to agree to give poorer countries access to one-billion doses of vaccines through donations and funding.

Trudeau is the only leader who has yet to commit to specifics on vaccine sharing.

But a Canadian government official, speaking on the condition of anonymity, says the country will pledge up to 100-million doses.
