With a population of ~38 million, ~8 million already vaccinated (with at least one dose of Pfizer or AstraZeneca, according to https://www.ctvnews.ca/health/coronavirus/coronavirus-vaccine-tracker-how-many-people-in-canada-have-received-shots-1.5247509 ), and two doses of Pfizer needed per person (at least for now), 44 million additional vaccines brings the vaccination rate up to ~68% (could be a bit lower if many only have one dose of Pfizer).
This begs the question, would ~70% of Canadians consent to this, willingly? Or will pressure need to be applied, like Alberta is currently doing with these criteria for lifting restrictions?
Trudeau seems to think there will be a need for that many vaccines (provided he's being honest about the number & timeline).
**correction to title: to receive 44 million vaccines by end of June, so, a bit more time to distribute.
