Canadian Public Perspectives: Going Into 2014
December 2013
Canadians Assess the Economy, Their Personal Finances, Their Most Important Issues, and Political and Social Issue Engagement Online
Canadians are going into 2014 with their most positive ratings on the condition of the national economy, their local economy, and their personal finances in the past four years.

An increasing proportion of online Canadians are actively engaged in public policy, political and social issues.
