CORA is continually adding new surveys and is always soliciting new data from commercial research firms, independent think tanks, research institutes, NGO's, and academic researchers. This website also includes readily-accessible results from these surveys, tracking Canadian opinion over time on frequently asked survey questions, as well as tabular results from recent Canadian surveys, and more general information on polling. This material is made available as a public service by CORA and its partners.

Individuals conducting research for non-commercial purposes are able to get access to the CORA electronic holdings and conduct searches of the database by requesting a password from our manager. The CORA data are stored on a secure server at Queen's University. Individual-level data cannot be downloaded, but researchers are able to conduct the full range of bivariate and multivariate analysis on data through one of two interfaces.

The CORA is housed in the data library of Stauffer Library, and is administratively accountable to the School of Policy Studies.
