Notes

According to The Poll

Article content A new poll looking at attitudes towards multiculturalism and the PQ's Charter on Values found that almost three-quarters of Quebecers would like to see the Parti Quebecois's prohibition on religious symbols for employees in the public sector extend to the private sector.



Article content A Forum Research poll for National Post found that charter plans have divided public opinion nearly to the middle. 45% supported the plan, 49% disapproved, and 6% are undecided.



Content of the article The data indicate a drop in support for the charter, which was previously at 58% in Quebec by an Forum Poll on Aug. 24.



According to the poll 32 percent of Quebecers would like to see the prohibition of religious symbols that are visible such as yarmulkes and burkas, extended to private sector services like servers and taxi drivers.



While 75% of the respondents agreed that immigration contributed to the province becoming "strong," half of Quebecers disapproved of multiculturalism and called for new immigrants in the province to leave their native custom and dress in a bid to be "more like Quebecers." Just less than half of respondents agreed the belief that multiculturalism breeds conflict, and nearly 4 in 10 said that Quebec should only accept immigrants from countries that speak French.



Article content "All Canadians know that francophone Quebeckers feel threatened as a linguistic minority on a continent that is English-speaking," Lorne Bozinoff, Forum President, said in an official statement. "But the level of xenophobia that are evident in these findings, particularly in rural Quebec is truly alarming."

CAQ won 19 seats in the 2012 election however, the poll results suggested that the third-party would only receive four seats "if the election were to be held today."



Both telephone polls conducted surveys of 1,179 Quebeckers of voting age and are considered to be accurate +3% 19 times out of 20. blogging is good for your The results, which were released on Saturday, came on the same day thousands of protesters gathered in downtown Montreal in support of Premier Pauline Marois to spike the proposed charter that would prohibit public sector employees from wearing prominently visible religious symbols.
