Métis Nation-Saskatchewan wants to sweeten the deal for those who get vaccinated for COVID-19.
The organization has launched a new incentive program, This is Your Shot, in which fully vaccinated Métis people will get the chance to win some pretty big prizes including a truck, a pontoon boat, cellphones and laptops.
There’s even the chance at 80 educational scholarships worth $25,000 each.
“We need to ensure COVID-19 vaccines are widely available. The Métis Nation-Saskatchewan government continues to partner with the Saskatchewan Health Authority to host vaccination clinics throughout the province during our This is Your Shot incentive program,” MN-S Health Minister Marg Friesen said in a news release.
“We encourage citizens to get vaccinated and to protect each other to keep our families and communities safe.”
The contest is open to fully vaccinated Saskatchewan Métis citizens and citizens with applications in process.
The early bird entry deadline is Saturday at 5 p.m., and the grand prize final deadline to enter is Nov. 24.
Fully vaccinated candidates can enter online.
