03 Feb Saskatchewan Resident Perceptions on U.S. Relations and Trump
In late January, Insightrix conducted an independent poll regarding Saskatchewan resident perceptions of Canada-U.S. relations, performance of Trump as president and opinions on other recent events. Here are the findings.
We surveyed 801 Saskatchewan residents on our consumer panel, SaskWatch Research®. Quotas are set by age, gender and region to match the distribution of the adult population of the province. Data were collected between January 22-26, 2021.
Seven in ten Saskatchewan residents disapprove of the way Donald Trump handled his job as president. Women and those living in Regina and Saskatoon are more likely to disapprove of his performance.

Research Details
A total of 801 randomly selected SaskWatch Research® panel members participated in the online research study between January 22 to 26, 2021. Quotas were set by age, gender and region to match the general population.
Since the research is conducted online, it is considered to be a non-probability proportion sample; therefore, margins of error are not applicable. However, the margin of error can be estimated to be ±3.5 percentage points, 19 times out of 20 for questions answered by all respondents.
