go - Docker container running golang http.Client getting error `certificate signed by unknown authority`

Question

I created a docker container for talking to the google api using GoLang. I started off using a SCRATCH container and am getting the error certificate signed by unknown authority upon changing to ubuntu/alpine i still get the error.

resp, err := client.Get("https://www.googleapis.com/oauth2/v3/userinfo")

Any help solving this issue would be great. I can run the code fine on my mac.

Having done some research I can see the issue https://github.com/golang/go/issues/24652

but I dont know if this is directly related or if I need to share some certificate with the container.
