Appendix A: Questionnaire
Department of Justice
2006 Survey of Justiciable Problems in Civil Matters
FINAL Questionnaire
Introduction
Good afternoon/evening.
My name is and I am calling from the Environics Research Group. Today we are conducting a survey on behalf of the Government of Canada about various issues that affect people's lives.
This survey is being conducted with a randomly selected group of several thousand Canadians, aged 18 and over. All of the answers provided will remain completely confidential and anonymous. The purpose of this research is to better understand Canadians' need for different kinds of legal and other types of assistance, which will help in the development of new programs and services.
IF ASKED: The survey will take between 10 and 25 minutes, depending on your answers to some of the questions.
IF ASKED: I can give you a contact name at the Government of Canada at the end of the survey [PROVIDE UPFRONT IF RESPONDENT INSISTS]
IF ASKED: This survey is registered with the National Survey Registration System. The registration system has been created by the Canadian survey research industry to allow the public to verify that a survey is legitimate, get information about the survey industry or register a complaint. The registration systems toll-free telephone number is 1-800-554-9996.
A.May I confirm that you are over 18?
- 01 – Yes CONTINUE
- 02 – No This survey must be completed by someone who is over 18. Would there be someone else in your household who is over 18?
IF YES ASK TO SPEAK TO THAT PERSON
CONFIRM WHETHER RESPONDENT WOULD LIKE TO BE INTERVIEWED IN ENGLISH OR FRENCH
I. Problem Identification
I would like to begin by reading to you a list of the types of problems and disputes that people sometimes experience. In each case, I'd like to know whether you or your spouse or life partner (if you have one) has experienced this type of problem in the past three years; that is since March 2003. Problems that started before March 2003 should be mentioned so long as you were still dealing with them after that date.
We are interested in problems that you felt were serious and difficult to resolve. Please feel free not to answer any question you might not feel comfortable answering.
IF ASKED WHAT A SERIOUS PROBLEM IS, SAY: By "serious" we mean it was a large enough problem that you felt it could not be easily answered or solved, and that if you ignored it there would be negative consequences.
INTERVIEWER: IF RESPONDENT INDICATES THEY DO NOT HAVE A PARTNER/HAVE NOT HAD ONE FOR THREE YEARS, DO NOT READ "OR YOUR PARTNER" IN THE FOLLOWING QUESTIONS.
