50% Of Canadian’s Think That 2020 Is The Worst Year That They’ve Lived Through!

Have you heard anyone say, “2020 is awesome?”

According to a new survey, over half of Canadians feel that 2020 has been the worst year ever!

 

A new Leger poll by the Association for Canadian Studies asked people, “Up until now, is 2020 the worst year you’ve ever lived?”

  • Personal problems (stress, anxiety, uncertainty about the future, etc.) – 41%
  • Depression – 26%
  • Separation, breakup, divorce – 24%
  • Illness of a relative or loved one – 22%
  • Personal Illness – 18%
  • Family problems (fertility problems, bickering, etc.) – 18%
  • Job loss – 15%
  • Serious personal accident – 9%
  • A serious accident of a relative or loved one – 5%
  • Natural disaster (e.g. loss of home due to flooding or landslide) – 3%
  • Other 7%

 

Additionally, 64% of Canadians feel that over the next three months, another lockdown will come with business closures and stay-at-home orders back in place.
