Summary

"... report of findings from a survey of Canadians to examine their awareness of and relationship to different historical, recent or on-going conflicts around the world, and to understand their views and experiences in terms of how these conflicts might have an impact on their lives here in Canada. Two methods were used to obtain both a representative sample of the Canadian public as a whole, including robust samples of 1st generation, generation "1.5" and 2nd generation Canadians, as well as supplementary, targeted samples of those with a connection to one of the following specific conflicts of interest: Israel/Palestine, Armenia/Turkey, Sri Lanka, Somalia/Horn of Africa, The Sudans, India/Pakistan, Sikhs/non-Sikhs in the Punjab and/or elsewhere in India, Afghanistan, Former Yugoslavia."--Page 2.
