Albertan respondents recorded the lowest percentages expressing an emotional attachment to their home.

Women are more likely to feel an attachment to Canada , and older Canadians expressed more attachment than younger ones.

Only about half of respondents said they trusted their governments.

Canada had a “pretty unpopular prime minister in 2023 and 2024 .

Enns said the low trust levels indicate how much work Mark Carney has to do on “rebuilding up some of the trust in the federal government” The polling industry’s professional body, the Canadian Research Insights Council , says online surveys cannot be assigned a margin of error because they do not randomly sample the population.
