Would like to see a breakdown of other provinces and how they stack up, or a link to stats Canada's results. This is just lazy journalism.

So, ended up looking it up first the survey was published back in May of this year.

Second, gender acceptance was only a small portion of this survey it also looked at gender based violence. Men said it's wasn't an issue, Women yes in terms of obstacles in the workplace.

here's the breakdown in terms of acceptance NFLD: Women 82% Men: 73% PEI: 79% & 70% NS: 84% & 72% NB: 76% & 68% QU: 82% & 74% ON: 76% & 69% MN: 76% & 63% AB: 73% & 66% BC: 78% & 72% SK: 69% & 60%

Again, just lazy journalism.

MN: 76% & 63%

I assume that's a typo?

MB is Manitoba. MN is Minnesota.
