"A large majority of Canadians believe a COVID vaccine passport should be required for travel.
An Angus Reid poll shows that 76% of Canadians would support mandatory vaccination proof for travel to the United States; that figure goes to 79% in favour of vaccine proof for international travel.
People are less interested in a vaccine passport for everyday activities at home, such as going to restaurants or movie theatres. Although a majority (55%) still support proof of vaccination for these activities, some 41% are against the idea.
As as the poll says, that latter figure is high enough to make implementation difficult.
A large majority (69%) want to see vaccine passports required at large public gatherings, such as major concerts or other events with more than 50 people.
Not surprisingly, the poll found that those who travelled regularly before the pandemic were more likely to say the Canada/U.S. border should be opened. Still, almost half (48%) think the border should remain closed until September.
