Survey found resistance to immigration
A recent survey found that a 56% majority in Quebec wants the federal government to squelch the flow of people via Roxham Road because immigrants are a threat to French. François Legault is said to be comforted by this knowledge.
On Twitter, La Presse’s PA Normandin responds with contrary numbers about immigration and French.
This is against the Conseil du patronat (i.e., the bosses’ club) saying they want 100,000 immigrants a year in Quebec, not necessarily proficient in French, to work here. Capital has no nationality.

It clearly states that they could not calculate an error of margin because it’s based on a panel from LEO (Leger’s Online system that renumerates people to reply to such questionnaires). And states that it should normally compare to an error margin on a poll of ±3.1%, based on 1003 responders and then normalized to reflect the population.
That’s statistical legalese saying that should believe it, but in reality it’s based on NO reality, because we are paying people to answer these polls and therefore they can’t really be representative of the population, because there is hardly anyone from the middle to upper incomes who is really answering these things and of course with no error of margin the entire basis of the poll is useless and the error of margin could high as to make this really just the same as throwing a dart at the board and hoping it’s right… but we have to publish something or no one will pay us to pay these people to answer these questionnaires and our whole economic model would fail and we would have no jobs making you think that we are doing something productive with our lives when in reality, you could replace us with a dart board. 🙂
