Canadians' use of the Internet and digital technologies before and during the COVID-19 pandemic / by David Wavrock, Grant Schellenberg and Christoph Schimmele. : CS36-28-0001/2022-4-4E-PDF
"This study uses a common set of questions from the 2018 and 2020 cycles of the Canadian Internet Use Survey to categorize Canadians into one of five Internet user groups in each year, ranging from non-users to advanced users. An upward shift across categories is observed. From 2018 to 2020, the share of Canadians aged 15 or older who were classified as either non-users or basic users of the Internet and digital technologies decreased by 4.8 percentage points. The share classified as advanced users increased by 4.5 percentage points. While increasing shares of Internet users reported many online activities, the difference in uptake between basic users and intermediate users widened on many of them, suggesting that basic users fell further behind other users during this period. The upward shift across Internet user groups was most evident among Canadians aged 50 to 64 and aged 65 or older"--Abstract, page 1.
