A survey was conducted this August asking Canadians a total of ten questions largely dealing with what they considered to be morally wrong.
Table of Context
I) Where this survey is lacking
II) What Canadians consider immoral
I) Before giving out the data it is important that we are open about where this survey is lacking. This survey was completed by about one hundred Canadians: 4.12% lived outside Canada, 15.46% lived in Alberta, 17.53% lived in British Columbia, 3.09% lived in Manitoba, 3.09 lived in Saskatchewan. The majority of those surveyed were from Ontario (45.36%). Only 6.19% resided in Quebec. 1.03% came from Newfoundland, 3.09% came from Nova Scotia and 1.03% came from Prince Edward Island. No one resided in the Nothern Territories or New Brunswick. This survey is lacking mostly in Quebecers.
59.38% of those surveyed were male, only 40.63% were female.
They were asked what age group they fell under, of those who answered:
7.29% were children (aged twelve or under)
18.75% were teenagers.
37.50% were young adults (18-30)
36.46% were older adults (older than 30)
As most Canadians are over thirty this is an area where the survey is lacking.
