Canadian Gallup Poll, May 1976, #388

This Gallup poll seeks the opinions of Canadians, on both political and social issues. The questions ask opinions about members of parliament's decisions and other political issues within the country. There are also questions on other topics of interest and importance to the country and government, such as strictness of laws; the Olympic Games and inflation. The respondents were also asked questions so that they could be grouped according to geographical variables. Topics of interest include: banning cigarette advertisements; banning liquor advertisements; continuing the Olympic lottery; the impact of organized religion on life; learning both English and French in schools; whether or not M.P.'s should vote according to personal views; the Olympic games helping international relations; opinions about the teaching profession; the strictness of business laws; the strictness of labour laws; and the success of curbing inflation. Basic demographic variables are also included.
