Middle-class Canadians are tired of the rising cost of living and the “high tax burden” placed upon them, according to in-house Privy Council research. Focus groups from across the country told pollsters the federal government has failed to address the issues most important to Canadians.
“Discussing additional measures that could be taken by the federal government to assist the middle class, participants suggested actions such as lowering taxes for middle-class households and increasing the range of benefits and supports available within Canada,” reads the pollsters’ analysis, which was first obtained by Blacklock’s Reporter.
