The public surveys are conducted by Abacus Data. Below are the 2018 and 2019 surveys.

2019 Saskatchewan Survey
2019 online survey was conducted with 3,219 Canadians over 18 years of age from February 26th to March 7th, 2019. The survey found people in Saskatchewan recognize the seriousness of an aging population and the strain it will have on the health system. Participants were then asked questions around the pharmacist role within caring for an aging population. The survey found this concern is held by many older residents, particularly women. The survey breaks down into 5 sections from the innovations in health care delivery to how comfortable people are with pharmacists doing more to sustain the health system.

2020 Saskatchewan Public Survey
The survey was conducted online with 2,400 Canadian residents aged 18 and over, from February 18 to 21, 2020 with 537 focused on Saskatchewan. A random sample of panelists were invited to complete the survey from a set of partner panels based on the Lucid exchange platform. These partners are typically double opt-in survey panels, blended to manage out potential shews in the data from a single source. The data were weighted according to census data to ensure that the sample matched Canada's population according to age, gender, educational attainment, and region. Totals may not add up to 100 due to rounding.
