What did Canadians search for most in 2014? According to Yahoo Canada’s annual Year In Review, it’s Jennifer Lawrence, Robin Williams, and the iPhone 6.
It’s also the Ebola virus and “Frozen.” The movie… not our weather conditions.
The study examined what Canadians looked for on the internet on a day-to-day basis. “Yahoo’s Year In Review reflects the true curiosity of our users,” said Claude Galipeau, country manager for Yahoo Canada to CBC News.
