The man confronted the female nurse on Monday morning in the office of a pharmacy in the city of Sherbrooke, about 155 kilometers (96 miles) southeast of Montreal, where she was assigned to administer vaccines, police spokesman Martin Carrier said by phone.
"Our suspect went directly into the office and began to yell at the nurse," Carrier said.
The man appeared to be very shocked that his wife was vaccinated at the pharmacy "without his authorization," and hit the nurse in the face, Carrier added.
Nurses globally have faced cases of abuse along with suffering burnout on the job in the long fight against COVID-19, health advocates say.
