Executive Summary
Background
Global Affairs Canada indicates that the
baseline wave of the research for this tracking study, collected in February
2020 by Narrative Research on behalf of Global Affairs Canada (GAC), revealed
that “while most Canadians remain unaware
of development efforts, awareness has increased modestly. Canadians are proud
of Canada’s international development activities and also believe they are
important. However, the public perception is that the Government of Canada
performs poorly when communicating about international development and there is
a lack of confidence in Government of Canada information. Finally, the baseline study revealed that
youth prefer the Internet over social media to receive information on Canada’s
development activities, and older Canadians prefer T.V. and print newspapers.”
Research Objectives
The research objectives of the current survey
were to:
·
Catalogue
the current level of understanding among adult Canadians concerning international
development activities;
·
Understand
Canadian awareness of international development; and
·
Measure
Canadian understanding of and support for the role the Government of Canada, and GAC particularly,
plays in international development.
Target Population
The
target audience includes adult Canadians (general population) 18 years of age
and older. A telephone survey of 1,200 was conducted between January 13 and
February 4, 2021.
Research
Usage
The
research will support government and departmental priorities. The goal of the
department is to increase the awareness of Canadians on international
development issues. The immediate need is to find out the best ways to connect
with Canadians, as the SOW imparts that the current messaging does not seem to
work. The research will benefits Canadians as they will understand how and why
Canada assists people in developing countries. The results of the research will
be used in public outreach and social media messaging targeted at the Canadian
public.
Expenditure
The survey entailed the
expenditure of $47,967.65, including tax.
Consent
Narrative Research offers this written consent

Appendix A
Study Methodology
The
survey for was administered among 1,200 members of the adult Canadian general
public aged 18 or older, between January 13 and February 4, 2021.
Questionnaire Design
The questions utilized in this study
were provided by Global Affairs Canada. Narrative Research reviewed the
questions, providing suggestions and prepared them in a format suitable for
telephone administration.
As
required by Government of Canada standards, English and French pre-test surveys
were conducted.
Sampling
The survey was designed to be administered to a random sample of 1,200 adult Canadians 18 years of age or older. The sample provided for dialing entailed contact records reflecting Random Digit Dialing (RDD), thus engendering a large number of Not in Service (NIS) telephone numbers. For landlines, records were drawn from a list of randomly-selected households compiled from telephone numbers in Canada, selected from a database that is updated quarterly. Both listed and unlisted numbers were included in the sample.
Narrative Research utilized ASDE Inc.’s Canada Survey Sampler (CSS) sampling software to generate general population telephone landline samples within Canada, which has become a standard software for many companies in Canada. This software has been proven to provide a sample that is equivalent to RDD. Randomly generated cellular numbers were also used. The sample was stratified by region in order to ensure regional representation with approximate targets as follows:
|

Error (19

|
Western/Northern
Canada |

± 5.1 percentage points |
|
Total |
1,200 |
± 2.8 percentage
points |
The target interviews plan entailed overall
quotas by age and gender, as well as by region. The gender quotas were
approximately 50/50, while the age quotas were broken into three groupings:
18-34, 35-54, and 55 years of age or older.
Administration
As noted, the survey was conducted via
telephone. The survey was programmed by Narrative Research in both English and
French via Computer-Assisted Telephone Interviewing software (CATI).
Respondents had the option to complete the survey questionnaire in the official
language of their choice. Assistance was available from bilingual staff members
as required, with ongoing bilingual supervision. In terms of training, in
addition to a thorough general screening and training process, supervisors and
interviewers were provided with extensive, customized project-specific
training, a review of the questionnaire including specific terminology,
acronyms and pronunciations, and background information on the project goals
and objectives.
In terms of supervision, as with all projects
there was a ratio of one supervisor for every 15 interviewers working. This ‘floor
supervisor’ answers questions, handles escalations,
ensures that technology is functioning properly, and blind monitors
interviewers. In addition, a minimum of 10 percent of interviews were audited
through the review of recorded interviews or live monitoring (twice the
percentage required by industry guidelines).
The programmed survey was thoroughly tested to
ensure question order and skip patterns were properly represented. In addition
to this testing, a pre-test was conducted with 10 English and 10 French
surveys. The overall purpose of
the pre-test was to ensure that:
·
The wording of the questions was clearly understood
and unambiguous;
·
The sequence of the questions was appropriate;
·
The necessary response categories had been included
for each question; and
·
Neither specific questions nor the survey overall
evoked a negative reaction or discomfort among respondents.
In addition to the survey questions, pre-test
respondents were invited to offer comments on the questionnaire document. When indeed
respondents were asked to identify any questions that were problematic from a
comprehension or other problematic perspective, no substantive issues were
identified. The pre-test data was carefully reviewed to ensure accuracy and
identify any aspects that needed to be modified. A
small telephone programming issue was detected and corrected upon examining the
pre-test data. No survey data was affected as an outcome of this procedure. A
pre-test report was prepared outlining the results. Fieldwork was monitored to
ensure quotas were being met, and to determine if there were any challenges via
the call disposition/reasons for non-response information.
The survey
required a mean average of approximately 15 minutes for respondents to
complete.
A minimum of five call-backs for landline
telephone numbers, and five call-backs for cellular telephone numbers was
instituted. Calls
and call-backs were varied
throughout the day which includes both daytime
and evening calling,
limited to 9 p.m. in a given time zone.
Narrative Research and its data collection partner employed a number of techniques for keeping response rates as high as possible:
·
Training of all interviewers in
telephone and interview techniques and thorough project briefings to guarantee
professional and thorough data collection activities;
·
100 percent supervision of all
interviewing by experienced supervisors;
·
Continuous on-line monitoring of
interviews in progress by supervisors (10% monitored or called back for
verification);
·
Pre-testing of all survey
instruments at the design stage by senior field personnel to ensure it provides
the best possible respondent experience;
·
In-house sample development through
consultation between and among Narrative Research staff members to ensure the
project’s final sample or contact records have been created in a consistent
manner; and
·
Call rules to keep response rates
high and minimize non-response bias including a minimum of five telephone
attempts to a telephone number before classifying as not available (i.e., the
original attempt plus four call-backs), calling at different times of the day,
and arranging call-backs.
If an interviewer did not speak the
requested interview official language, the interview transferred to another
interviewer or a call back arranged within 20 minutes (or at another time if
requested by the respondent). When calling to a particular location with a
predominant language (e.g., French in Quebec), calling was done by interviewers
who speak the predominant language to minimize the number of transfers
required. The tables below for the survey display
regional, gender, and age data in terms of the actual distribution of adult
Canadians as catalogued in the 2016 Statistics Canada Census. As well, the
general regional, gender, and age quota targets are detailed (both in terms of
the actual number of surveys
completed, and the percentage of all
surveys completed). The tables on the pages below present data with the
weighted and unweighted number as
well as percentage of surveys
collected, for relevant demographic dimensions.
Data Tabulation: There
were a total of 24 overlapping or interlocking statistical weighting cells
created from the study design using the weighting factors of: Region (4:
Atlantic, Quebec, Ontario, Western/ Northern); Age group (3: 18–34 years of
age, 35–54 years of age, and 55 years of age or older); and Gender (2: Male,
Female). The 24 overlapping or interlocking statistical weighting cells thus
were derived from Region (4) x Age (3) x Gender (2) dimensions = 24 unique
statistical weighting cells. Population data for the 24 statistical weighting
cells were obtained from the most recent (2016) Census of Canada, and can be
found here:
It should be noted that a small number of
individuals were not able to be placed into one of the 24 weighting cells as
they preferred not to provide a response to the gender question. For tabulation
purposes, these individuals were given a weight value of 1.0.
1 A total of 21 respondents who preferred not
to provide their gender, are not presented in the table, as no quota targets
were set.

Non-Response Bias Analysis
Any
survey that is conducted is potentially subject to bias or error. When a survey
is conducted with a sample of the population, there are two general classes of
bias or error: sampling error, which is quantifiable, and non-sampling error,
which is typically not quantifiable. Sampling error arises from the fact that
interviews are conducted with only a subset of the population, and thus is it
possible that the results obtained from this group of respondents is not
reflective of the population as a whole.
In
contrast, non-sampling error encompasses a number of different types of errors
including coverage error, measurement error, non-response error, and processing
error.
For the current
telephone survey, the actual achieved margins of error provide a reflection of
the sampling error and are presented in the table below:
|
Region |
Completions |
Margin
of Error (19 in 20 times) |
|

± 9.2 percentage

|
Quebec |
302 |
± 5.6
percentage points |
|
Ontario |
435 |
± 4.7
percentage points |
|
Western/Northern Canada |
350 |
± 5.2
percentage points |
|
Total |
1,200 |
± 2.8 percentage points |
With
respect to non-sampling error, a number of steps were taken to minimize bias.
The survey utilized survey programming technology to ensure proper survey skip patterns
were followed and to minimize errors due to data entry and data capture. The
French and English survey instruments themselves were pre-tested with a small
sample of respondents to ensure the survey material was easily understood by
respondents, and that the resultant data were being captured properly.
Interviewers were also trained and supervised.
In terms
of coverage, the telephone survey was conducted from a random sampling of a
robust sample frame of landline and cellular numbers. Quotas were established
for demographic groups traditionally regarded as central in quantitative survey
research, such as gender, age, and region/province. The final data set was
statistically weighted to closely match the true distribution of these
dimensions as reflected in the 2016 Statistics Canada census. The statistical
weights implemented were relatively small, given that the data collected
already closely matched the actual distribution of adult Canadians along these
demographic dimensions.
