Majority of Ontarians say their province is heading in the wrong direction: poll

Just one-third of Ontarians say their province is heading in the right direction, according to a new Leger poll.

The polling finds that, despite Premier Doug Ford having an approval rating of 45 per cent, a majority — 55 per cent — of Ontarians believe the province is on the wrong track. Only 33 per cent say the province is on the right track.

“There’s been a shift in moods in Ontario. Ontarians are growing more pessimistic,” said Jennifer McLeod Macey, Leger’s senior vice-president of public affairs.
