Canadian Gallup Poll, April 1980, #437a

The questions ask opinions about political predictions 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 spring fever, television violence and the interest rate.

The respondents were also asked questions so that they could be grouped according to geographical variables. Topics of interest include: allowing more Indo-Chinese refugees; banning public opinion polls prior to an election; buying control of American companies; having spring fever; the impact of violence on television; the increasing interest rate; increasing U.S. capital investment in Canada; providing government assistance to deal with high interest rates; types of spring fever; the use of social insurance numbers (SIN); and the withholding of information by the Federal government.
