I don't know if we have enough data for that analysis, but I'll put it on the list of things to try next time we do a big data download. Thanks for the idea.

In the case of Liberal Party members, I suspect support would more be hovered around notions like freedom or let live whereas with New Democrats equality would be a bigger factor in motivating support for same-sex marriage. Same-sex marriage isn't a hot issue in Canada now - it's been legal since 2005 - but it'd still be interesting to test.

I do think we likely have enough Canadians and I'll try to do an analysis of Canadians if I can think of a good research question. Do you have a particular hypothesis to test?

I know all the researchers are American, but I'd find it interesting to see how moral beliefs correlate among Canadian partisans (especially since the "liberal-left" spectrum isn't regarded as a continuous unit in Canada, but rather is broken up into reform-liberals who vote for the Liberal Party and social democrats who vote for the NDP).

We have a lot of common interests, as you will see from the email I sent you. I have also done research on political activists, libertarians, and on moral judgment. Let's talk!
