Project Canada -
Begun in 1975, Project Canada has generated extensive information on life in Canada, with specific attention given to social issues, intergroup relations, and religion. The project has taken representative samples of Canadians every five years, creating panel studies through which social change and stability can be monitored. [See More...]
The Project Canada Research Program has been carried out from the University of Lethbridge. National surveys of adults 18 and over have been conducted in 1975, 1980, 1985, 1990, and 1995. Adult surveys in 2000 will complete the program. The goal has been to generate extensive information on life in Canada, with specific attention given to social issues, intergroup relations, and religion. [See More...]

The Project Canada Research Program has been carried out from The University of Lethbridge under the direction of Dr. Reginald Bibby. National surveys of adults 18 and over have been conducted in 1975, 1980, 1985, 1990, 1995, 2000, and 2005, with complementary surveys of youth in 1984, 1992, 2000, and 2008. Further, in 2015 and 2016, additional adult and youth surveys were completed on-line in partnership with Angus Reid. The survey was the sixth in the Project Canada national adult surveys. It was carried out by mail between approximately April 15 and October 15 of 2000. Reginald W. Bibby was the principal investigator, assisted by Project Manager Reggie Gordon Bibby, Jr. and a number of student research assistants. Project Canada 2000 was comprised of a list of some 1,700 people who had participated in the five previous Project Canada adult surveys (1975 through 1995). Based on previous participation experiences, an additional new sample of some 1,500 people were drawn, with the goal of having a total sample of at least 1,500 people. These 1,729 cases have been weighted for provincial and community size, along with gender and age. In order to minimize the use of large weight factors, the sample again was reduced-to 1,240 cases. So weighted, the sample is highly representative of the Canadian population. A representative sample of this size should be accurate within about four percentage points on most items, 19 times in 20 similar surveys. A major interest of the ongoing national surveys has been to monitor social change and stability. Each survey sample from 1980 through 2005 consisted of (a) a core of people who participated in the previous survey and (b) new participants, who were used to create a full national sample of about 1,500 cases. For example, while the first 1975 survey was a typical cross-sectional survey with 1,917 participants, the Project Canada 1980 sample of 1,482 people included 1,056 who had also been involved in 1975. Various panels can be constructed from the surveys according to the five-year interval desired (e.g.,1975-85, 1980-90, 1990-2000). While no claim is being made that these panels are representative of all Canadians, they do provide intriguing and novel data on the attitudes, outlooks, and behavior of a core of Canadians over the last quarter of the 20th century. The panels can be weighted as deemed necessary by data users. [See More...]
The 2005 survey was the seventh in the Project Canada national adult surveys. It was carried out by mail between approximately July 15 and December 15 of 2005. Reginald W. Bibby was the principal investigator, assisted by Project Manager Reggie Gordon Bibby, Jr., Jim Savoy, and a number of student research assistants. The initial Project Canada 2005 sampling frame consisted of a list of 1,729 people who had participated in one or more of the six previous Project Canada adult surveys (1975 through 2000). Previous experiences suggested that as many as 50 percent of these individuals (about 900) would participate once again. To produce an eventual participating sample of at least 1,500 cases, this core was supplemented with an initial new sample of some 1,500 people and a projected 500 participants, resulting in a total 2005 sample of around 1,500 people. In addition, to facilitate comparisons with Alberta in the province's centennial year, Alberta was oversampled to bring its total to around 600 people - permitting generalizations within about +/- four points, 19 times in 20. This involved adding about 400 people beyond the 232 Albertans who had participated in Project Canada 2000 and selecting some 1200 additional people from the province. Our projections were reasonably accurate: the total number of 2005 participants consisted of 2,400 people, including 655 Albertans. With oversampling compressed, the Alberta sample is an appropriate 160 (10 percent), and the total national sample 1,600. [See More...]
The Project Teen Canada 1984 national survey is the first in a series of national, bilingual research projects examining the values, attitudes, beliefs, behaviour, and expectations of Canadian teenagers. Based on the Project Canada adult surveys, the project has taken representative samples of Canadian teenagers every eight years, creating panel studies through which social change and stability can be monitored.
