We would like to hear from people aged 18-24 about their childhood experiences with smartphones – positive or negative

We would like to hear from people aged 18-24 about their childhood experiences with smartphones and social media, positive or negative.

We would like to hear from people about the impact the Covid-19 pandemic has had on them five years on

Ahead of the fifth anniversary of Covid being declared a pandemic in the US, we would like to hear how your life has changed since the outbreak started.

Have political views in your family, community or wider area shifted? We’re also keen to hear whether relationships of Canadians with American family members, friends and colleagues have changed.
