Canadians love their wilderness, survey shows

A survey on outdoor-related activities of Canadians showed that in 1996 we participated in recreational fishing, wildlife viewing, hunting, camping, boating and sight seeing. A 1998 study on time use by Canadians showed that we spent 30 minutes a day on sport and active leisure, 2.2 hours a day watching TV, 0.4 hours a day reading, and 0.2 hours a day watching sporting events, movies and other entertainment.
