Canadians are increasingly concerned about rising crime in their communities, according to a new Angus Reid Institute poll.
“New data from Angus Reid,” says Shachi Kurl, president of the institute, “shows that three-in-five (62 per cent) Canadians believe crime has been rising in their communities over the last five years. That’s a lot more than the number of Canadians who say there’s been no change (24 per cent) or a decrease (five per cent).”
