In other wacky Canadian election news

Courtesy of The National Post:

The Canadian Taxpayers Federation (CTF) today released results of a national public opinion poll showing that by a two-to-one margin, Canadians are more likely to accept the validity of Bigfoot than they are promises on the campaign trail.

[. . .] The survey of 1,000 Canadian adults was conducted by Praxicus, a pollster known to have close ties with senior Conservative Party officials. The results are considered accurate to within +/-3.1 percentage points, 19 times out of 20. The question asked: “Which is more likely to happen … Politicians will keep their election promises or scientists will prove the existence of Bigfoot?”

58% said Bigfoot, while 27% opted for promises. 15% were undecided.
