In 1992, my former company, the Angus Reid Group, carried out a poll in 14 countries to gain an international perspective on Canada and the world. Global citizens described Canada as a peaceful, tolerant and caring nation, and could not understand why the country was being threatened at the time by separatism. On the other hand, Canadians expressed dislike for their government, and many concerns about their future. Still, Canada’s self image closely resembled its international reputation.
Fourteen years and three Canadian prime ministers later, it is time to gauge the views of Canadians and global citizens again, taking into account the complexities of the current times. Angus Reid Strategies chose 19 nations, in addition to Canada, for this study, which was conducted through representative online panels of each country’s general population.
On November 9, 2006, Angus Reid Strategies shared their findings from the World Poll that was conducted with the support of the Donner Foundation and the Liu Institute for Global Issues.
