This Gallup poll aims to collect the opinions of Canadians, mostly on issues of global or international importance. Issues such as nuclear war, the spread of communism, and international politics are raised. Also asked were questions of local (Canadian) significance, including awareness and opinions of the New Democratic Party. The respondents were also asked questions so that they could be grouped according to geographic, demographic and social variables. Topics of interest include: American influence over the Canadian lifestyle; the conflict over Berlin; a career as a police officer for respondents' sons; Canada's dependence on American defence; federal elections; respondents' opinions on what "free enterprise" means; whether all labour unions should back up a single political party; who is ahead in terms of missile technology; nuclear weapons for Canadian Armed Forces; Russia; respondents' opinions on what "socialism" means; liklihood of survival during a nuclear war; union membership; the United Nations; and voting behaviour. Basic demographics variables are also included.
