As Abacus chair Bruce Anderson wrote in an Aug. 11 Maclean’s magazine article, “almost half of (the vaccine hesitant, 46 per cent) live in Ontario and well over half of them (59 per cent) are women. A quarter were born outside Canada. Their average age is 42 and the plurality are between 30 and 44 years old. If they were voting in a federal election today, 35 per cent would vote Liberal, 25 per cent Conservative, 17 per cent NDP, nine per cent Green — pretty similar to overall voting intentions for the entire population.”
