More than half of Canadians feel violence in their community has increased: Ipsos poll

CA, 09 Mar 2023
According to exclusive Ipsos polling for Global News, nearly six in 10 Canadians feel there has been more violence in their community since the COVID-19 pandemic began.

Among those who feel violence has increased, two-thirds believe it’s because the pandemic has negatively impacted mental health while half point to the breakdown of common values and social cohesion.

A similar proportion blames economic uncertainty. Meanwhile, there’s not much optimism about the future with eight in 10 people believing acts of violence will increase in Canada.
