Trudeau Liberals aren’t paying enough attention to affordability: Poll

OTTAWA — Less than half of Canadians think the federal government is doing enough to combat Canada’s ongoing affordability crisis, new polling suggests.

The spark*insights poll, conducted on behalf of Restaurants Canada, found that 57% of respondents said the Liberals aren’t making affordability enough of a priority — and that’s prompted the food service advocacy group to call on the federal government to dial back payroll taxes by 2% in the coming fall federal economic statement.


The threat of 3rd world staff contaminating the food is enough to keep me home.

I will never patronize Tim Horton’s for their abuse of the foreign workers program.

Cost is certainly a factor exacerbated by the demand for ever greater tips for ever declining service.

Overall Canadian restaurants are sketchy places that pose too great a risk to patronize.
