Canada: trust in environmental leaders by province and politics 2021

In 2021, Albertans on the left of the political spectrum trusted leaders of environmental groups by 58 points more than those on the right. This gap is about twice as large as the gap in confidence between left- and right-wing supporters in neighboring British Columbia (28 points) and Saskatchewan (30 points), and much larger than in the provinces of central Canada, Ontario (22 points) and Quebec (26 points).
