Public Affairs Research provides critical insights into target populations and groups (be they citizens, stakeholders, employees or consumers) in terms of how they view their role in society, how they want to be governed, and their expectations of, and experiences with, institutions and businesses. In today's increasingly complex world, such research has become essential to all organizations in the public, private and non-profit sectors.

From its founding by Michael Adams in 1970, Environics pioneered the development of public affairs research in Canada, and established a strong reputation as the country's leading authority on public opinion and social trends. Today, Environics is one of Canada's foremost public affairs research firms, providing leading-edge services to public, private and non-profit organizations in Canada and abroad.

The company combines an experienced team of public affairs researchers with leading-edge research tools to develop and implement research strategies that address client needs. Our reputation provides an unparalleled degree of credibility with our clients and their stakeholders, both internal and external.

Our business is driven by three core values:

• Accuracy - We are rigorous in our methods to ensure that our clients have complete confidence in the results we deliver.
• Integrity - We do not compromise in our adherence to the standards and principles upon which public opinion research and our industry are founded.
• Insight - Our job starts with data, but only ends once we have fully interpreted and articulated what it truly means for our clients and their objectives.
