If it was not so , they would not have been authorized to do so .... Not only is it more convenient , it is more readily available also to get it done @ Shoppers Drugmart since they are so widely available and administer flu shots on weekends also .

Wow ! Great. Canadian healthcare is improving.
I am hoping that Shoppers will get reimbursement from Health Ontario for each flu shot.
As to the other poster, administering flu shots and the questionairre can be done by a nurse or a pharmasist. Even in 2009, there was a talk of giving more powers to pharmasists (as being done in Alberta) so that doctors can take charge of more important things, rather than writing tylenol prescriptions / giving flu shots
