A new survey by Nanos Research shows three in five Canadians are not interested in travelling internationally this summer.
According to the survey, commissioned by CTV News, 61 per cent aren’t making any international travel plans at all, while six per cent of Canadians said they had international travel plans this summer and cancelled them. Another three per cent said they had booked international travel, but may still cancel their trips.
The survey comes as travellers have been plagued by long wait times at both airports and passport offices, and with inflation at a 40-year record of 7.7 per cent. Meanwhile, at passport offices, Service Canada is struggling to catch up with the wave of requests following a lull during the early months of the COVID-19 pandemic.
The Nanos Research survey also sought to gauge Canadians’ level of concern about another wave of COVID-19. The numbers show the majority of those surveyed have some level of concern another wave of COVID-19 this fall could prompt governments to bring back certain restrictions.
