71%? 

Wouldn't be the first time that the majority of some larger group was misled, misinformed, and--mostly--simply uninformed.

You doubt this?  I'd like another national survey.  One simple question: why did the government pay Omar Khadr? And remember, the question's posed AFTER what appears to be the biggest Canadian political news story year-to-date--this one. 

If you expect that 80-90% of adults would answer correctly (or even  coherently), you might be shocked.
