Environics Research Group 2023-09-14 In December 2006, Environics Research conducted a major national survey of Muslims and multiculturalism in Canada, as part of its ongoing syndicated FOCUS CANADA research program. The focus of this research is on the presence and experience of Muslims in this country, and draws direct comparisons with similar research conducted in 13 other countries by the Pew Research Center (many of the same research questions were used to provide for direct country-to-country comparisons). The Pew research included Muslim over-samples in Great Britain, France, Germany and Spain. Some of the topics covered in this research: General attitudes about immigration in Canada, personal contact with different ethnic groups (including Muslims), perceived discrimination against ethnic groups, general attitudes towards Muslims, concerns about Muslims and terrorism, Islamic identity and extremism among Muslims, integration of Muslims and other ethnic minorities into Canadian society, Canadian foreign policy and the mission in Afghanistan Muslims, experience of being Muslim in Canada, concern about the future of Muslims in Canada, self-identification within the Muslim community, the role and rights of women in ethnic communities, Islamic identity and extremism among Muslims, integration of Muslims and other ethnic minorities into Canadian society, Canadian foreign policy and the mission in Afghanistan. Please note, the cases in this dataset are comprised only of Muslim respondents. https://i.creativecommons.org/l/by-nc/4.0/88x31.png" /></a><br />This work is licensed under a <a rel="license" href="http://creativecommons.org/licenses/by-nc/4.0/">Creative Commons Attribution-NonCommercial 4.0 International License</a>.

Health Canada; Environics Research Group 2023-09-14 Environics Research Group Limited was retained by Health Canada to survey the general public, including non-smokers and smokers, in the provinces of Quebec, Ontario, and Saskatchewan, on attitudes toward second-hand smoke and smoking in public places. The surveys were designed to sample 800 of the general population in each province, plus an oversample of smokers to bring the total to 800 smokers in each province. Environics conducted interviews by telephone as follows: 1,404 adults, including 800 smokers, in Quebec, December 9 to 28, 2004; 1,443 adults, including 801 smokers, in Ontario, December 7 to 23, 2004; and 1,413 adults, including 802 smokers, in Saskatchewan, December 7 to 22, 2004. The margin of error for samples of this size is plus or minus 2.6 percentage points, 19 times in 20. The survey was conducted to measure knowledge, attitudes and behaviours of the population, both smokers and non-smokers, to serve as a baseline against which to measure and evaluate the impact of the smoking ban which came into effect in Saskatchewan on January 1, 2005, as well as any bans which may result from recent proposals announced in Ontario and Quebec.
