New Poll Finds Canadians “Happy at Home” When it Comes to Travel
TORONTO: A new poll finds that while most Canadians have lived or travelled abroad, the majority see their homeland as a top vacation destination.
A survey conducted by Ipsos Reid for Historica Canada says 68 per cent of participants agreed that “Canada has something for everyone, so why go anywhere else.”
About a third of respondents, on the other hand, said they think Canada is a great place to live but not that interesting to visit and they’d rather travel outside its borders.
Among those planning Canadian vacations, most — 32 and 24 per cent, respectively — are headed to Ontario or Quebec, where the bulk of the country’s population lives.
