Canada is among the world leaders for first dose vaccinations and a new poll is showing more support for the federal government’s COVID-19 vaccine rollout.
Nearly half of respondents to the Nanos Research Poll for the Globe and Mail say Prime Minister Justin Trudeau’s government was doing a very good job in the vaccine rollout, up significantly from January when just 31 per cent said the same.

At the provincial level, the Ford government is not faring so well in public opinion.
The Globe and Mail reports Ontario got the lowest score for its vaccine rollout, with an average rating from respondents at 4.7 out of 10.
The poll also showed just 36 per cent of respondents would be comfortable or somewhat comfortable with people returning to large sporting events and concerts this if many people are not fully vaccinated.
