More than one in five Canadians (22 per cent) believe we should continue to have strict public health measures in place to stop the spread of COVID-19.

Exactly three years ago, Canadians forlornly contemplated the prospect of their first pandemic summer. We had no true get-togethers, only a few scattered visits to open areas where social distancing was the norm.

When we recently asked Canadians about the current state of affairs, almost two thirds think we are in a different moment and there is no need for additional public health measures related to COVID-19. This leaves two significantly smaller groups that call the status quo into question. During the peak of the pandemic, Canadian politicians were unique when compared with the presidents of the other North American countries. In the U.S., Donald Trump touted the benefits of disinfectant injections as a cure, disregarding medical experts. Mexico’s Andrés Manuel López Obrador argued that the best cure for the virus was honesty .

Perceptions on the media are similar to the way Canadians feel about their politicians with about half saying newspapers , radio news and television news dealt with the pandemic successfully. The rating is lower for non-governmental associations , unions and trade associations .
