The Centre for Research and Information on Canada (CRIC), established in 1996, managed the Canadian Unity Council (CUC) research and communications activities. CRIC's research activities were concerned with the theme of Canadian unity conceived broadly to incorporate a variety of issues related to the political, economic, and social union of Canada.
The Centre for Research and Information on Canada (CRIC) generously donated the following surveys to Carleton University to be used for academic teaching and research only. No more data will be forthcoming from CRIC as this department is now closed.
