The Chances for a Second Trudeau Government September 2018 © 2018 Copyright Innovative Research Group Inc. 2 Methodology • These are the findings of an Innovative Research Group (INNOVATIVE) poll conducted from September 27th to October 1st, 2018. • This online survey of 2,410 adult Canadians was conducted using INNOVATIVE’s Canada 20/20 national research panel with additional respondents from Leger Marketing, a leading provider of online sample. The results are weighted to n=1,200 based on Census data from Statistics Canada. • Respondents from the Canada 20/20 Panel and the Leger Panel are recruited from a wide variety of sources to reflect the age, gender, region and language characteristics of the country as a whole. Each survey is administered to a series of randomly selected samples from the panel and weighted to ensure that the overall sample's composition reflects that of the actual Canadian population according to Census data to provide results that are intended to approximate a probability sample. • INNOVATIVE provides each panellist with a unique URL via an email invitation so that only invited panel members are able to complete the survey, and panel members can only complete a particular survey once. • This is a representative sample. However, since the online survey was not a random probability based sample, a margin of error can not be calculated. Statements about margins of sampling error or population estimates do not apply to most online panels. Note: Graphs and tables may not always total 100% due to rounding values rather than any error in data. Sums are added before rounding numbers.
