Young Canadians Believe That Honouring War Veterans Is Important. Young Quebecers More Confident of Future Tolerance Towards Immigrants.
Youth thinks regionalism is the political wave of the future.
Outside Quebec, forty per cent of young people believed that Canadians would be less tolerant while 59 per cent believed that they would be more tolerant of immigrants by the year 2025. One per cent of respondents said there would be no change while one per cent did not answer. In Quebec, the numbers were quite different with 67 per cent of young people believing that there would be greater tolerance by 2025 and 26 per cent saying that there would be less tolerance. Five per cent anticipated no change while three per cent did not answer. These are key findings of Destination 2025, a survey of young Canadians between the ages of 18 and 25 that was commissioned jointly by the Association for Canadian Studies and the Centre for Research and Information on Canada.
