Premiers say H1N1 vaccine plan could be better, but there are unique challenges

SASKATOON - Canada's premiers say the rollout of the swine flu vaccine could have been better handled across the country.

The premiers talked about H1N1 in a conference call Friday and say they're working together to tackle the situation, but offered up little in the way of new details.

Saskatchewan Premier Brad Wall, speaking on behalf of the leaders, says the provinces have had unique challenges.

Wall says there might be common ideas that could help everyone deal with the pandemic, but there needs to be more discussions with the federal government first.

Wall says those talks will happen reasonably soon.

Millions of Canadians have received the swine flu shot, but there have been long lines at clinics because of a vaccine shortage and confusion over who should get the shot first.
