Public Opinion Research

PWGSC's Public Opinion Research Directorate provides coordination and advisory services to Government of Canada organizations on public opinion research. It also fosters partnerships and the sharing of public opinion research across the federal government. The Directorate facilitates studies by guiding client departments throughout the entire process — from the research planning and procurement to completion of the final report — to ensure that objectives are met and that the research undertaken conforms with the legislative and policy requirements as well as Government of Canada and industry standards.
