TORONTO -- More than half of Canada’s population has been vaccinated with at least one dose of a COVID-19 vaccine, according to CTVNews.ca’s vaccine tracker.
On Saturday morning, the percentage of the Canadian population that has received at least one dose of vaccine tipped over 50 per cent after New Brunswick reported that it had administered another 11,383 first doses.
The percentage of those fully vaccinated – meaning they’ve received two doses – is at just over 4 per cent.
In total, the country has administered more than 20 million vaccine doses.
On Friday, Canada surpassed the U.S. in the number of first doses administered per capita. However, the U.S has a far higher percentage of the population that has been fully vaccinated with two doses.
As of Saturday afternoon, 47 per cent of Americans had received one dose of a COVID-19 vaccine and 37 per cent had received two shots.

Correction:
This story has been corrected to show that Canada passed the 50 per cent mark for first doses when New Brunswick reported its vaccine numbers.
