  • The survey was conducted from October 8 to 10, 2021.
  • Using data from the 2016 Census, results were weighted according to age and gender within Ontario regions, as well as by education and presence of children in the household in order to ensure a representative sample of the population.
  • For comparison purposes, a probability sample of 1,003 respondents would have a margin of error of ±3.1%, 19 times out of 20.
