Angus Reid Institute says their recent polling of Canadians about COVID 19 and lifting public health restrictions shows that we feel parks and work places should open first. Those choices made the top 10.
And if you really want to get a haircut or golf, those choice make it mid-way through the pack while opening up movie theatres and bars or restaurants is at the bottom of the top 10.
39% of Canadians feel both the impacts of the shutdown on protection of public safety and on business and the economy should carry equal weight but 52% feel reducing risk of infection carries the most weight.
Significantly few Canadians asked said they would go back to their old routines right away but would instead wait a few weeks even if restrictions were lifted.
The non-profit pollster says 77%, about three quarters, feel it is too soon to begin relaxing social distancing requirements and business closures.
Nearly half of Canadians, at 46% feel restrictions in their own province should lift sometime in May or June. Twenty-eight per cent said between July and October. And most Canadians are worried about spreading the virus to others rather than becoming sick themselves.
