Canadian Gallup Poll, October 1977, #405

The questions ask opinions about the upcoming election 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 self-protective laws, unemployment levels and nuclear power stations.

The respondents were also asked questions so that they could be grouped according to geographical variables. Topics of interest include: the amount of unemployment benefits; banning public opinion polls before elections; biased news reporting; the big issues in the next election; Canada becoming a Republic; causes of unemployment; common worries; the government guaranteeing jobs; high school emphasis on basic subjects; increasing nuclear generation; job security; making binding arbitration mandatory; the most accurate media new report; opening a nuclear power station in the community; opinions of self-protective laws; predicted unemployment levels; and the right to French or English education.
