Potential Water Supply Threats Concern Canadians
Winnipeg, Manitoba – According to a new national survey, fewer than one-half of Canadian adults are confident their drinking water is adequately protected from natural disasters or man-made threats such as terrorism. These findings emerged from a national telephone survey of Canadian adults taken by Probe Research, Inc. between May 23rd and June 17thth, 2006 among a random and representative sampling of 2,006 Canadian adults. Other survey findings reveal residents of Atlantic Canada and Saskatchewan were most likely to express strong confidence in the security of their local drinking water supplies (31% and 30% respectively “very confident”) while those living in Quebec expressed the highest levels of anxiety about these threats to their household tap water source (21% “not at all confident”). This research was conducted as part of Probe’s third national syndicated drinking water survey entitled A Clear Perspective of Canadians and their Drinking Water, on behalf of subscribers from both government and private-sector organizations.
