| Abstract | This article presents the results of a public attitude survey of a quota sample of approximately 4,000 age 18 and older Canadians, in which respondents were asked to express their opinion on who should own and operate professional athletics, national and international amateur athletics, and school/amateur sport. Attitude was also assessed on what form school/amateur sport should take, i.e., athletic excellence or socializing sport. The perception of TV athletic aggression upon family members and responsibility for controlling level of TV athletic aggression was also assessed. Approximately three-quarters of the respondents felt that professional athletic teams should be owned and operated by some form of private enterprise, while the remainder felt that this was the government's responsibility (21 percent) or had no opinion (four percent). Responsibility for ownership and operation of national/international amateur athletics was viewed mainly as the responsibility of the government, with only 18 percent attributing responsibility to private enterprise. In terms of organizing and paying for school/amateur youth sport, about half of the respondents saw this as a government responsibility, one-quarter as an amateur athletic organization responsibility, and 14 percent as a school responsibility. The overwhelming majority of the respondents favored socializing sport as opposed to athletic excellence. Over 50 percent of the respondents felt that TV little affected themselves or their family members, in respect of athletic aggression. When questioned on responsibility for regulating the aggressiveness of TV athletics, 70 percent indicated athletic organization responsibility, with the remainder split between government, network, and combined responsibility.
