Speaking in Ottawa on Wednesday, Canada's Health Minister Mark Holland shared remarks following the government's release of documents related to the high-profile firing of two scientists from Canada's National Microbiology Lab in Winnipeg in 2019.

Holland said the lack of adherence to security protocols and procedures at the lab was "unacceptable," and that there has been an "extraordinary effort" since then to ensure nothing similar occurs again.

Earlier on Wednesday, Holland tabled the documents in Parliament after a special ad-hoc committee formed to review the documents determined efforts to keep the information under seal was meant to avoid the “embarrassment” of the Public Health Agency of Canada, rather than protecting national security.
