About this Research Co. federal poll


This federal poll was fielded by Research Co. in February 2026, with a middle field date of February 5, 2026. The poll collected data from a total sample of n=1,001 Canadian respondents via an online panel.

The margin of error for an online sample is not applicable. For comparison purposes, a random sample of this size would yield a margin of error [moe] of ±3.1%, 19 times out of 20 (for entire sample only) around the 50%-mark.
