Even though the country is often perceived as a model when it comes to inclusion, 12 percent of people surveyed in Canada in May 2021 believed that some races are naturally superior to others. This opinion was most prevalent among Canadians who voted for the Conservative Party in the 2019 federal elections (17 percent), and among voters of other political parties than the main ones (21 percent). In contrast, the most likely to view all races as equal in terms of natural characteristics were New Democratic Party voters.
