How Important is Mental Health for People in Canada?

The online Nanos Research survey of 1,004 people in Canada, 18 years of age and older, was conducted September 15-17, 2019. The results are statistically checked and weighted by age using the latest census information, and the sample was geographically stratified to be representative of Canada. No margin of error applies. The research was commissioned by the Mental Health Commission of Canada. Technical notes are available from Nanos.
