Show Notes

On this first episode of inFocus, I’m joined by one of the founders of Canadian modern polling, Frank Graves. Frank is the founder and president of Ekos Research Associates. 

He has been studying Canadian public opinion for over 40 years – working with governments, non-profits, unions, and businesses to understand the dynamics of Canadian public opinion.

I sat down with Frank just before the holidays to discuss his approach to public opinion research and what his experience over the past 40 years has taught him about what Canadians think and why they think what they do.
