And there's still time to sign up.

Staff Writer

Your chances to win beaucoup bucks in Quebec's vaccine lottery are getting slimmer by the day as over one million people have already signed up for it.

According to the Ministry of Health, as of Thursday morning, 1,207,161 people have signed up for the lottery, which is open to all Quebecers aged 12 and over. But don't worry, there's still plenty of time to register before it closes.

For Quebecers 18 and over, starting in August, there will be one draw per week for a cash prize of $150,000 for those who only have their first vaccine dose.

Then, on September 3, a $1 million dollar prize draw will open only for double-dosed individuals.

For folks age 12 to 17, the province will hold weekly draws for two $10,000 scholarships. And finally, on September 3, there will be a draw for 16 scholarships worth $20,000 each for people with two doses.

To be eligible for the August draws, you need to register online by 11:59 p.m. the previous day at the latest.

Quebecers with two doses have to register for the September 3 draw by 11:59 p.m. on August 31.
