METHODOLOGY

METHODOLOGY

Web survey using computer-assisted Web interviewing (CAWI) technology.

From April 18 to April 22, 2019

1,522 Canadians, 18 years of age or older, who have the right to vote in Canada, randomly recruited fromLegerWeb’s online panel.

Using data from the 2016 Census, results were weighted according to age, gender, mother tongue, region and levelof education in order to ensure a representative sample of the population.

No margin of error can be associated with a non-probability sample (Web panel in this case). However forcomparative purposes, a probability sample of 1,522 respondents would have a margin of error of ±2.52%, 19 timesout of 20.

CANADIANS’ POSITION ON BILL C-71Q5. The Senate is currently studying a new piece of legislation, Bill C-71, which would modify the current legislation on firearms in Canada. Please tell me if you are in favour or opposed to the following proposed changes.Base: All respondents (n=1,522)

Making it mandatory that gun retailers keep a detailed inventory of all firearms sales and

inventories, including make, model, type, serial number of the firearm along with the owner’s

references and licence numbers. The data would be accessible to the police or RCMP.

Extending the length of time, the RCMP can check into a person’s background when applying for a gun permit from the last 5 years of that person’s

life (current legislation) to potentially that person’s full life.

Making it mandatory for owners of restricted firearms (handguns for example) to obtain an

Authorization to Transport before they travel or transport their restricted firearm.

DETAILED METHODOLOGY

Sampling Frame

Participants were randomly selected from LegerWeb’s online panel.

Leger owns and manages an Internet panel that includes more than 400,000 Canadians coast to coast. An online panel consists of Webusers profiled according to different demographic variables. The majority of Leger’s panel members (60%) were randomly recruitedover the phone in the past ten years, which makes this panel very similar to the current Canadian population on a number ofdemographic characteristics. Moreover, 35% of panellists were recruited through affiliate programs and 5% through partner campaignsand programs.

To be eligible, respondents were required to be 18 years of age or older and have the right to vote in Canada.
