What Canadians were curious about: Google searches suggest 2017 a tough year
If you are what you Google, Canadians are a pretty broad-minded lot.
Google has released its 17th annual survey of top-trending searches, and top-of-mind topics for Canucks in 2017 ranged from devastating hurricanes to deceased rock icons to the continuing political circus south of the border.
“Google Year-End Search takes a look at trillions of searches globally,” said Alexandra Hunnings Klein, trends expert for Google Canada. “These lists are a barometer of what was interesting, what Canadians were curious about in 2017.”
Some search terms are always popular, said Hunnings Klein.
