The answer: Not that much based on a recent Ipsos Reid poll.

The poll addresses the use of the micro-blogging tool by Canada.  In short, the key results of the poll are:

  • Only 26% of Canadians that use the web are aware of Twitter
  • One out of every 100 Canadians is using Twitter
  • The tool is the 17th most popular Internet site in Canada
  • The smallest amount of users of Twitter reside in the province of Quebec

In comparison, 11% of online Americans use Twitter or update their status on the web according to The Pew Internet & American Life Project. (February 2009)

The Ipsos Reid press release regarding the poll is available here.
