(CityNews Image) CITYnews halifax / By Mike Lloyd Summer travel season is upon us, but a good number of Canadians say they’re cutting back on their plans over the next couple of months because they just can’t afford to spend as much. More than a quarter of the Canadians who responded to a CIBC summer spending poll say they are scaling back summer travel plans as they grapple with the high cost of living. Of those who say they’ve already booked time off, almost two-thirds say they’re taking a budget-conscious approach to summer fun. Four-in-10 shared they intend to spend less than $2,000 on travel. To stretch those dollars further, most plan to keep travel within Canada. Half are choosing more affordable options like road trips, and one in five are camping to reduce expenses. Outside of travel, many Canadians indicate they are also cutting back on day-to-day expenses and forgoing big purchases this summer. Another poll, actually done for a major auto manufacturer, suggests more than half of us are dealing with the current economic climate by delaying or cancelling at least one major purchase. Regionally, B.C. residents are among the most likely to delay travel plans, the survey found. 0 comment 0 FacebookTwitterPinterestEmail admin previous post Black First Nation’s member wins racial discrimination case against N.S. band next post Brave 8-year-old in West Hants leads police to arrest in California You may also like Le Canada célébré d’un océan à l’autre 1 يوليو، 2024 Power outage at Pockwock Lake Water Treatment Facility... 1 يوليو، 2024 Kings County man wanted on province-wide warrant arrested:... 1 يوليو، 2024 Deal reached in WestJet mechanics’ strike, but travel... 1 يوليو، 2024 Atlantic ballet’s Indigenous dance program gives chance to... 1 يوليو، 2024 كندا تحتفل بعيد تأسيسها الـ157 1 يوليو، 2024 كندا تصل إلى ربع نهائي كوبا أميركا لِكرة... 1 يوليو، 2024 Canada Day festivities attract hundreds at ceremonies, parties... 1 يوليو، 2024 Trudeau hails Canadian values as celebrations kick off... 1 يوليو، 2024 في سابقة تاريخية، امرأة على رأس القوات المسلحة... 30 يونيو، 2024
