Vaccinated adults will be eligible for cash prizes, while teens will have the chance to win scholarships.
âI think every penny is worth it at this stage of the game,â Quebec Health Minister Christian Dubé said Friday when asked if he believes the effort will make a difference.
Run by Loto-Québec, the lottery will be held throughout August and culminate in early September.
The province will hold a weekly draw of $150,000 every Friday in August for adults who have received at least one dose. A $1-million draw will then be held on Sept. 3 for people who are fully vaccinated.
