I think it's still under- stated/recognized how much COVID spread was (and is?) an urban phenomenon. In Toronto, on subways, I'd say at least 10% of people mask. It's a pretty large group. I feel like there's pretty widespread acceptance of masking here too, in recognition that the city is close quarters at times (eg, subways). I would be really surprised if I saw someone critiquing another person for wearing a COVID mask in public - and I might even approach the aggressor lol. From Senator Simons' article, it sounds like there are more mask trolls - a euphemism 'mask troll' to be sure' - in Alberta. Shame.
I don't mask regularly in public places currently, but I think about it. I sometimes mask if I "can't get sick" for something coming up in the next few days. I also mask when I'm transitioning from sick to healthy and out of isolation when I've had a respiratory sickness.
Thankfully, I haven't been sick for a while, which I credit partly to keeping up with my flu and COVID vaccinations better this year or two. I'm a bigger believer in the shots being a good personal investment than I was years ago (they are also a very good investment for public health - but I always knew that :)
