Anecdotal but I used to work with a lot of seniors. MarchHare's claim was 100% true in my experiences. This would've been around 2015-2018 in a wealthy neighborhood in Calgary. I can't imagine their views have changed much. But as that age group shifts and the bigots die off and more liberal people get older, I guess it could be slowly changing.

Although I've noticed that most people I know have gotten far more conservative as they've gotten into old age so it also seems like it might be growing too.
