Ekos Research Associates

EKOS Research Associates Inc. is a Canadian polling firm that specializes in public opinion, market and economic research. It was founded in 1980 by Frank Graves, with $5,000 he borrowed from his father. The firm uses interactive voice response for its political polls.

A Maclean's analysis found EKOS' polling for the 2019 Canadian federal election did not meet the accuracy standard of the top 5 Canadian polling firms (Forum Research, Mainstreet Research, Nanos Research, Ipsos-Reid, and Léger/Innovative).
