Lets put this another way.Because Ontario is much larger you need to factor that it's more difficult to scale the vaccine rollout.
Because of scalability, the other smaller provinces SHOULD be ahead in percentage administered. It doesn't mean Ontario is doing a bad job. It just means they have a bigger project on their hands. Ontario is doing just fine and still the by far leader in actually administering doses.
If you don't factor scalability, and we use your math that "isn't hard" then assuming the level of competence in every province is the exact same Ontario will loose in your comparison every single time.
It's a lot harder to fill 1000 order than 100 orders. A business that successfully fills 950 out of 1000 order will ALWAYS be a bigger and better business than one that fills 98 out 100 orders because we don't know what would happen to the business that does only 100 orders if they tried to do 1000.
Doing this kind of math isn't going to paint a clear picture because what's happening here is a massive project that will naturally be tougher for Ontario because they need to scale it much larger. If you can't understand that you are not familiar with projects of this level. By the same logic if there was a province of only 10,000 people and all 10,000 were already vaccinated you would like call them the winner even though they had a much smaller challenge ahead of them, so like your comparison it would also be extremely unfair.
5,643,587 vaccines administered in Canada. 3,451,334 outside of Ontario. 7,107,969 vaccines delivered to the provinces. 4,287,474 outside of Ontario.
So using your logic, 3,451,334>2,192,253 and 4,287,474>2,820,495
So running the numbers,
Canada, 3,451,334/4,287,474=80.4 percent.
Ontario, 2,192,253/2,820,485=77.7 percent
Technically, using your logic, distributing 3.45 million vaccines should be a harder task than administering 2.1m, but across Canada those 3.4 outside of Ontario have done that harder job better.
And they are doing it without trying to blame the federal government for lack of supply.
And pray Ontario gets better at this as they go along, as the amount of vaccines Canada gets, and by extension, Ontario gets, is about to get much larger. If they think administering 2.8 million vaccines since december is hard, wait until they are getting a million a week.
