Viewpoints '98: Regional Analysis of Results

A Survey of Canadian Business, Labour and Public Sector Leaders

In providing a regional breakdown of the data, we used four regional groupings, i.e. Atlantic, Quebec, Ontario and West. In addition, we have separately presented data for respondents whose organization spanned two or more regions. These will likely include larger businesses, and larger national unions which represent workers in more than one region.

In examining the results, the data is divided by region thus the sample size in individual regions becomes quite small. The results suggest that there are differences - perhaps significant ones - in business and labour attitudes in different regions. Results also suggest there would be considerable value in exploring these regional differences more deeply.
