There are also questions on other topics of interest and importance to the country and government, such as physically abused children, married women who work and changes in standard of living. The respondents were also asked questions so that they could be grouped according to geographic and social variables. Topics of interest include: allowing paid maternity leave; approval of Broadbent as NDP leader; approval of Clark as leader of the Conservative party; approval of Trudeau as Prime Minister; being involved with charities; the best political party to handle energy, unemployment; energy and to unify Canada; Canada-UK relations; changing the standard of living; children who are physically abused; married women who work; talking about politics with friends; and US-Canada relations. Basic demographic variables are also included.
