An exclusive Mainstreet Research Poll commissioned by the
Western Standard shows opposition to continued lockdowns and other COVID-19 restrictions are on the rise, and there are sharp divisions in the province over the issue.
Of the 1,010 Albertans surveyed, 52% said that they supported continued lockdowns and 45% said they should be ended immediately.
While those in support had a slight edge in overall support, the intensity of those who were fiercely opposed was more than twice that of those who were strongly supportive.
