The Métis Nation–Saskatchewan is launching a vaccination incentive program called “This is Your Shot” in an attempt to get Métis citizens to get fully vaccinated for a chance to win prizes.

“As the government of the Métis Nation in Saskatchewan, we will continue to do whatever we can for the health and wellbeing of our citizens and our communities,” says MN–S President Glen McCallum. “Getting vaccinated against COVID-19 is our shot at getting back to the moments that matter most like time spent with loved ones, attending live events, and holding social gatherings. Our Métis government is offering these vaccination incentives and supports to our citizens to do our part in encouraging everyone to get their vaccine.”

The contest is open to fully vaccinated Saskatchewan Métis citizens and citizens with applications in process. There will be an early bird draw, weekly draws for educational scholarships and other prizes, as well as a final grand prize draw at the end of November. Prizes include a truck, a pontoon boat, snowmobile, laptops, cell phones, and a variety of gift cards. There are 80 educational scholarships of $25,000 for citizens aged 12-30 years old available. Fully vaccinated citizens can enter online at www.mnsvaccinedraw.com.

The early bird entry deadline is 5 pm on September 4, 2021, with the grand prize final deadline happening November 24, 2021.
