METHODOLOGY

The analysis in this report is based on

a

survey conducted between January 4th to 6th, 2018 among a sample of 956 adults, 18 years of ag e or older, living in Alberta. The survey was conducted using automated telephone interviews (Smart IVR). Respondents were interviews on both landlines and cellular phones. The sampling frame was derived from both a national telephone directory compiled by Mainstreet Research from various sources and random digit dialing. The part of the survey that dialed from the directory was conducted

as a stratied dial of the following regions;

Calgary, Edmonton, and the rest of Alberta. In the case of random digit dials, respondents were asked the additional question of what region of the province they resided in. The survey was conducted by Mainstreet Research and was not sponsored by a third party.

The margin of error for the rst survey is +/-

3.11% and is accurate 19 times out of 20. (full methodology appears at the end of this report)
