Week 31 Results
We surveyed 400 Saskatchewan residents on our consumer panel, SaskWatch Research®, each week.
Self-reported mental health improves slightly this week but stress levels remain at record levels.
Outlooks for the weeks ahead stabilize somewhat with more residents feeling things will remain the same.
Supporting high stress levels, most residents feel the pandemic has at least a moderate impact on their lives.
Although few admit to having ignored the current five-person, at-home gathering limit, three in ten say they are likely to do so if such restrictions remain in place during the Christmas break.
Select residents are planning creative ideas for COVID Christmas.
Since March 23, 2020, we started sharing a few brief insights from our online community, SaskWatch Research®. As we monitor and trend the results by week, we will share the information with you as we get it.
