As we head into the busy holiday season, the second annual Canadian Winter Vacation Confidence Index by Allianz Global Assistance shows Canadians need a break but the majority don’t think they will actually get one. Only 54 per cent had a vacation at some point within the past year.
Conducted by Ipsos, the Index reveals that 59 per cent of Canadians are not confident they will be able to take a winter vacation this year, despite 71 per cent of Canadians seeing the need for an annual vacation as important.
Further underscoring the disconnect between Canadians’ need for a vacation and actually taking one, a surprising 33 per cent say they haven’t had a vacation in more than two years.
