Canadians frustrated with federation, but still support equalization payments to poorer provinces
Tuesday, June 4th, 2019
Despite these concerns, the survey found that three-quarters of Canadians support the equalization program, while 16 per cent are opposed… A majority of Canadians – 55 per cent – said they would prefer that their provincial leaders try to find a balance between its own economic interest and other parts of Canada, even if it means compromising. Only 31 per cent said they would prefer that a province or territory put its economic interests first.
