In Canada, there isn’t enough supply of COVID-19 vaccines, says Drew Dilkens, the mayor of Windsor.
Windsor Mayor Drew Dilkens pitched repurposing the tunnel as a vaccine site to address the lack of availability Canadians have to the shots by accessing vaccines that are going unused stateside. He estimates about 1,200 Windsor residents cross into Detroit every day as essential workers mainly working in health care.  
“They were there when Michigan was a hot spot early on in the pandemic. They were there when Michigan had a flare-up as the worst COVID state in the nation just a few months ago,” said Dilkens. “They’re the ones contacting us saying, ‘Listen, we’re seeing things here that just makes us concerned with respect to supply and demand mismatch of vaccines and the fact that some are hitting the trash. They’re expiring.’”
