The online survey comprised of a core sample of 1,500 respondents representative of the general population in terms of gender, age, region and education; quotas and weighting were applied to ensure proportionate representation to the Canadian adult population according to Statistics Canada census data. The core sample was supplemented by an oversample of 498 respondents with an annual household income less than $55,000; subsample analysis of this \u201clow income\u201d cohort included a total of 1,000 respondents (core sample with household income &lt;$55,000 + oversample) and was based on unweighted data. On average, the survey took 9 minutes to complete. An associated margin of error for a randomly selected sample of n=1,500 would be \u00b12.6%, 19 times out of 20.<\/p>\n<\/div><\/div><\/div>\n\n<div class=\"grid-container\"><div class=\"grid-x\">\n<div style=\"height:100px\" aria-hidden=\"true\" class=\"wp-block-spacer\"><\/div>\n<\/div><\/div>","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>At Interac, we are committed to excellent corporate citizenship and community investment rooted in helping Canadians get more out of life.
