Internet Usage and Demographics of Canadians

AIMS member Jaime Lea Foss is looking for general demographics on Canadian internet users. She sends in the following post...

I am putting together a marketing package for internet offerings for a client and would love to add some data in the introduction of age, income and any other key findings on internet users and benefits of marketing and/or advertising on specific or general sites. Do you know of a site or do you have any data that would be useful?

I just received the Canadian Media Digest prepared by the Canadian Media Directors Council and published by Marketing Magazine. It has some good general information about dial-up versus broadband, household access, and usage based on gender and household income. The '06/'07 issue is available for purchase ($25). The '05/'06 issue is available online at http://www.cmdc.ca/pdf/2006_Media_Digest.pdf

Anyone have other sources or stats to share?

The canadian Internet Project published "A comparative analysis of Internet users and non-users in Canada and the world: Behaviour, attitudes and trends." "The findings in this study are based on the responses of 3,014 randomly selected individuals in Canada, 18 years of age or older, who participated in a telephone survey in May and June 2004." You can download the PDF at http://www.cipic.ca/en/results.htm

People deserve very good life time and personal loans or small business loan will make it much better. Because people's freedom is based on money state.

The Open Cup's 98th championship is expected to draw more than 30,000 fans for the match at Seattle's CenturyLink Field "For us — and this has been from the beginning — the U.S. Open Cup is at the top of the list and is a tournament that we want to try to win every year," said interim Fire coach Frank Klopas, who scored a sudden-death goal against Columbus in the Fire's 1998 championship.
