Women were more than twice as likely as men to say they'll keep wearing masks in crowded places when their community reopens, according to a new survey by Nanos Research.
SASKATOON -- Women were more than twice as likely as men to say they’ll keep wearing masks in crowded places when their community reopens, according to a new survey by Nanos Research, with 32 per cent of women saying they would continue to wear face coverings compared to just 16 per cent of males.
Canadians overall were split on how often they would keep wearing a mask in crowded areas going forward. Two out of five people surveyed said they would wear a mask occasionally, with 24 per cent saying they’d wear one regularly. Meanwhile, one out of five said they’d never wear a face covering once their community opened up.
The survey, commissioned by CTV News, also found more than three in four Canadians supported or somewhat supported mandatory proof of vaccinations when travelling between regions in Canada. These opinions were held by slightly more people compared those surveyed back in April.Meanwhile, a strong majority of Canadians were open or somewhat open to having an annual COVID-19 booster vaccine to protect them from future variations of the virus.
Another key finding was that Canadians in the Prairies were the most likely to say their province lacked caution when it came to reopening plans. This compared to 84 per cent of those in Atlantic provinces who were more likely to say their province had been cautious in reopening -- followed by Ontario and Quebec who shared those thoughts. When looking at the country as a whole, nearly half of surveyed Canadians felt their provincial plans for reopening the economy and social gatherings were cautious.
