More than three in four Canadians still consider COVID-19 to be a real threat.
As Canadians enter the last month of the summer, our focus on the COVID-19 pandemic is not as intense as it used to be.
The way we feel about politicians has changed, and so has our own experience with the virus over the past few weeks. This month, 55 per cent of Canadians are satisfied with the way the federal government is dealing with the pandemic, down six points since May. There are also sizable drops in our perceptions of the performance of provincial governments and municipal governments .
One of the reasons for the shift in government satisfaction is the fact that COVID-19 is still affecting our lives. In May, only 23 per cent of Canadians said that they, or someone else in their household, became infected with COVID-19 after restrictions and mandates were lifted in their community. This month, the proportion has risen to 37 per cent. The rise in exposure to COVID-19 is particularly striking in three provinces: British Columbia , Quebec and Ontario .
