Canadian Gallup Poll, April 1978, #411

The questions ask opinions about the influence of multinational companies and metric conversions within the country. There are also questions on other topics of interest and importance to the country and government, such as interracial marriages, the influence of religion and satisfaction with education.

The respondents were also asked questions so that they could be grouped according to geographic and political variables. Topics of interest include: difficult metric conversions; metric distance conversions; age of retirement; the approval of different religions marrying; approving interracial marriages; dividing assets equally after a divorce; the efficiency of government owned companies if they became privately owned; the influence of multinational companies; the influence of religion on everyday life; metric weight conversions; preferred population amount in Canada; making reporters reveal their sources; plans for retirement; satisfaction with the education of children; terrorists or freedom fighters; the use of seatbelts; and ways to solve differences within Canada.
