A majority of Canadians believe that Ottawa is on the wrong track when it comes to handling issues the public deems important, and its actions to address them have produced “little in the way of tangible impact thus far,” according to confidential polling conducted for the federal government.

The polling results, reported to the Privy Council Office and obtained by Blacklock’s Reporter, found that most individuals surveyed thought the Liberal government has been slow to act and is not doing a good job tackling inflation and housing issues.
