Methodology
The Forum Poll™ was conducted by Forum Research with the results based on an interactive voice response telephone survey of 1021 randomly selected Canadians within Quebec. The poll was conducted on October 2nd, 2022.
Results based on the total sample are considered accurate +/- 3%, 19 times out of 20, measured as the average deviation across al response categories. Subsample results will be less accurate. Margins of error for subsample (such as age, gender) results are available at www.forumresearch.com/samplestim.asp
Where appropriate, data has been statistically weighted by age, region and other variables to ensure that the sample reflects the actual population according to the latest Census data.
This research is not necessarily predictive of future outcomes, but rather, captures opinion at one point in time. Forum Research conducted this poll as a public service and to demonstrate our survey research capabilities. Forum houses its poll results in the Data Library of the Department of Political Science at the University of Toronto.
With offices across Canada and around the world, 100% Canadian-owned, Forum Research is one of the country's leading survey research firms. This Forum Poll™ and other polls may be found at Forum's poll archive at forumpoll.com/
