Canadian Gallup Poll, February 1985, #494_4

This Gallup poll seeks the opinions of Canadians, on predominantly social issues. The questions ask opinions about cuts to CBC as well as CBC programming. There are also questions on other topics of interest and importance to the country and government, such as compulsory military service, allowing workers to strike and the use of alcoholic beverages. The respondents were also asked questions so that they could be grouped according to geographical and political variables. Topics of interest include: allowing essential workers to strike; compulsory military service for men; compulsory military service for woman; drinking alcoholic beverages; giving workers the right to strike; knowledge of CBC cuts; the minimum income a family of four needs; the most important union activities; parent's impact on a child's future; the preferred gender of boss; the program that CBC produces best; the worst program that CBC produces; quality of today's education; reactions to CBC cuts; reasons for favouring CBC cuts; reasons for opposing CBC cuts; satisfaction with tax levels; the school's impact on a child's future; and signing organ donation cards. Basic demographic variables are also included.
