A bar chart shows the percentage of Canadians by their response to the statement, “On a scale of 0 to 10, where 0 means not at all important and 10 is extremely important, how important is oil and gas to Canada’s future economy?” in January 2023, August 2021 and November 2020. The percentage of Canadians who think oil and gas is important to Canada’s future economy has increased from 41 percent to 57 percent since November 2020.
Note: Nanos conducted an RDD dual frame hybrid telephone and online random survey of 1,054 adult Canadians from Jan. 27-30. The margin of error is ±3.0 percentage points. Percentages may not add to 100 due to rounding.
