Canada on pace to reach 50 per cent vaccination of eligible Canadians aged 12 and up.

Great news for the country in the mass vaccination campaign against COVID-19.

Over 30 per cent of eligible Canadians aged 12 and up are fully vaccinated, that is more than ten million people.

Experts say Canada could reach 50 per cent fully vaxxed in a couple weeks.

Higher vaccination rates mixed with lower infections means provinces are lowering restrictions this week.

Ontario will move into Step Two of its reopening plan tomorrow.
