Two-thirds of Canadians say they believe the amount of income tax they pay is too high, while over half of Canadians say government spending is too high, according to an Ipsos poll.
“Beyond results on views of spending levels and the degree of accountability and transparency in spending practices displayed by the federal government, this study also highlights the extent to which taxpayers are dissatisfied with the allocation of funds invested, with 64 percent indicating that the government is not doing a good job at allocating funds to the most important issues facing Canada today,” Ipsos said about the survey poll conducted between June 29 and July 3 for the Montreal Economic Institute.
