Canadian Gallup Poll, July 1977, #402

This Gallup poll seeks the opinions of Canadians, on both political and social issues. The questions ask opinions the possibility of Quebec separation, as well as other important political issues within the country. There are also questions on other topics of interest and importance to the country and government, such as the effects of smoking, inflation and whether or not to give work to strangers. The respondents were also asked questions so that they could be grouped according to geographical and social variables. Topics of interest include: Canadians buying control of U.S. firms; confidence in United States problem solving; controlling price and income; the effects of smoking on health; giving provinces more power; giving Quebec more power; giving work to strangers; inflation caused by not having wage controls; opinions about capital punishment; plans to quit smoking; the preferred anti-inflation policy; smoking in the last week; supporting Quebec separation; unemployment caused by not having wage controls; and U.S. investments in Canada. Basic demographic variables are also included.
