In 2019, seven in ten people in Canada felt that society should work toward greater acceptance of LGBTQ people. The strongest supporters of this view were New Democratic Party voters, with 91 percent of survey respondents expressing this opinion.
Conversely, Canadians who voted for the Conservative Party in the 2019 federal election tended to believe that society should do more to recognize the importance of traditional family models, in which a woman is married to a man.
