Veterans Affairs Canada (VAC) commissioned Phoenix Strategic Perspectives Inc. (Phoenix SPI) to conduct public opinion research to gauge the effectiveness of creative concepts for the 2021 Remembrance campaign.
The purpose of the qualitative research was to gauge the effectiveness of the creative concepts for the 2021 Remembrance campaign. The objectives were to assess the extent to which the specific creative concepts capture one's attention, convey a message that is clear and easy to understand, are appropriate in tone, and motivate in terms of the call to action.
To meet the objectives, a set of 10 virtual focus groups was conducted, with two groups in each of the following regions: Atlantic Canada (English), Ontario (English), Prairies (English), British Columbia (English), and Quebec (French). One group in each location was held with Canadians aged 18 to 34 and the other with Canadians aged 35 to 54. Groups were mixed by age (within each segment), education, household income, gender, and ethnic background. The fieldwork took place between July 19 and 26, 2021.
The results from the virtual focus groups are not statistically projectable, but they offer detailed opinions about the issues explored through this research. The results of this research will be used by the Government of Canada to guide the messaging and creative development of the 2021 Remembrance campaign.
I hereby certify as a Senior Officer of Phoenix Strategic Perspectives that the deliverables fully comply with the Government of Canada political neutrality requirements outlined in the Policy on Communications and Federal Identity of the Government of Canada and Procedures for Planning and Contracting Public Opinion Research. Specifically, the deliverables do not contain any reference to electoral voting intentions, political party preferences, standings with the electorate, or ratings of the performance of a political party or its leader.
