Canadians aged 55 and over are more likely to endorse the concept of universal truth (81 per cent) than their counterparts aged 35 to 54 (75 per cent) and aged 18 to 34 (68 per cent).
One of the many contributions to public discourse made by former British prime minister Winston Churchill is the phrase “terminological inexactitude.”
For starters, practically three in four Canadians believe that people should always tell the truth, regardless of the consequences. Only 22 per cent disagree with this statement, and four per cent are undecided. We can start with a classic conundrum that Canadians might encounter on a regular day: lying to spare someone else’s feelings. An example could be to refrain from pointing out, when asked directly, that clothes look bad on a person.
Sometimes, Canadians do not express everything they know to protect someone else, such as misleading someone about the whereabouts of a person to help them avoid negative consequences. For 41 per cent of Canadians, this type of lie is permissible. Canadians aged 18 to 34 are more likely to condone this behaviour , than their counterparts aged 35 to 54 and aged 55 and over .
