I visited British Columbia a few weeks ago, coming from Europe, and was almost shocked to see that inside stores, etc., some people _still_ don't wear any masks, others wear them just covering their mouth but not nose (which I also count as "not wearing a mask"), and most people that do wear masks (properly) use simple cloth masks.
Over here in central Europe, FFP2/N95 masks have been mandatory in such settings for a long, long time now.
