Percentages in favour of a more nationalist policy were high almost across the board, according to the poll:
>> 89 per cent want an energy policy guaranteeing Canadian supply and protecting the environment.
>> 88 per cent of Canadians want a comprehensive national water policy that bans bulk export of fresh water and recognizes water as a basic human right.
>> 87 per cent of Canadians agree Canada should set its own independent environmental, health and safety standards.
>> 86 per cent agree the SPP should be debated in the House of Commons and submitted to a parliamentary vote.
A total of 1,007 people were interviewed for the poll, resulting in a margin of error of 3.09 per cent, 19 times out of 20, Environics said.
