This website is created and maintained by FX Morin. Yep, that's me.
I'm a senior software developer who was fed up after seeing EKOS committing treason against Canadians while the Canadian Research and Insight Council (CRIC) stood by and did nothing to stop it.
The more I looked into it, the worse it got. I eventually discovered that
Frank Graves,
the President of EKOS,
openly admitted to it on Twitter X... Seriously? What is CRIC doing?
That was the breaking point. After that, I decided to dedicate countless hours to building and maintaining this website. Someone has to hold these pollsters accountable.
Unlike these polling companies, I believe in transparency and in Canadians. That’s why everything related to this website is open-source. Together, we can work towards properly regulating pollsters.

With my trust in CRIC gone, the only other option is to do it myself. Basically, every other pollster auditor will base their audit on how close the polls are compared to election results. However, pollsters can publish accurate polls right before an election, which makes such rankings completely useless!
The goal is to create a system which can accurately identify fraudulent pollsters using statistical proof that can't be ignored. With this proof, we can then report to CRIC or through the house of commons, to properly punish pollsters.
Every dollar generated by this website goes directly into improving the service. I don’t need the money—I’d rather use it to hire developers who can help maintain and enhance this platform.
You can support the project through our Open Collective. This platform ensures that all expenses remain fully transparent—the way it should be.
