Canadians support actions against Russia over Ukraine war, but have economic concerns: poll

CA, 11 Mar 2022
Ipsos poll conducted exclusively for Global News found a majority of Canadians are supportive of the federal government’s actions against Russia over its war with Ukraine but are worried about the economic costs to their own lives, a new poll suggests.

Eighty-one per cent were in favour of imposing further sanctions on Russia, 71 per cent were supporting providing weapons and ammunition to the Ukrainian military, and 69 per cent were in favour of sending Canadian Forces troops to neighbouring European countries to deter Russia.

However, less than half of Canadians who answered the poll said they are prepared to pay more for gas because of those sanctions.

Ipsos surveyed over 1,000 Canadians online earlier this week for the poll.
