Premier Doug Ford announced on Monday that former General Rick Hillier will no longer be heading the task force for rolling out the vaccine in Ontario as of March 31, when his contract expires.
Ford claims he tried to convince Hillier to stay on, but Hillier says that things will be fine without him, and that Ontarians are on target to be vaccinated according to the current schedule.
