The purpose of the third iteration of the Canadian Perspectives Survey Series (CPSS) which ran from June 15 to 21, 2020 is to explore the re-opening of economic and social activity. Using data on family and caregivers, this article examines how household chores are shared between men and women in a couple, during confinement. The data covers persons aged 20 and over in Canada who were married or in a common-law relationship at the time of the survey. Respondents living in the same household with a spouse or partner of the opposite sex are considered.
