Canada’s environment ministry spent nearly $80,000 on polling to see which climate change phrases Canadians prefer, according to Blacklock’s Reporter.

The ministry, under Minister Steven Guilbeault, contracted Sage Research Corporation for the survey, which resulted in the report “Nature Based Solutions And Cleaner Environment Advertising Campaign Testing,” viewed by Blacklock’s. The report says the ministry paid $79,015 for it.
