Proof of vaccination is only needed while traveling. You don't need to submit it as a part of visa application. Check last column.

Guess that is what you are asking.

I am also confused by the information on the website. IMM 5645 is list as a required form in the website but the new IRCC portal does not require you to submit one.

Does anyone know whether I need to submit a signed IMM 5645 if I use the new portal?

imm5634 is for GC key applications. If you do the IRCC portal, there are questions there for family info (parents and children) included in the online application which you have to fill up.
