According to the Confederation of Tomorrow’s most recent survey, an expanding number of Canadians have become disillusioned with how well federal and provincial governments are handling some key policy areas. This unpalatable trend presents a damning picture of the dissatisfaction within Canada concerning Justin Trudeau’s government that fails to address pressing matters of concern.
Conducted among over 6,000 Canadians, this survey demonstrates a notable increase in respondents who expressed lack of trust for either the federal or provincial governments when it comes to decision making on major issues such as health care, climate change, economy, and immigration. In Atlantic Canada and British Columbia this sentiment has been particularly strong reaching worrying levels.
The survey findings on healthcare were far more disconcerting. A remarkable 28% percentage of Canadians no longer place their trust in either the federal or provincial governments to make decisions in healthcare settings which is quite different from the first time Corona virus hit when they trusted their provinces more than now. This loss of trust indicates that Trudeau administration has done nothing towards addressing current healthcare challenges thus making people lose hope in it each day.
Regarding climate change, however, 28 percent of survey participants revealed a lack of confidence in both levels of government. Currently facing widespread criticism for perceived lackluster efforts towards tackling the climate crisis and critics pointing out cases where Canada has not done enough or anything sometimes leaving its citizens feeling betrayed and abandoned by it.
Unemployment rate was another source where discontent showed up as about 23% respondents said they did not have any confidence that their governments would be able to manage these important aspects related to economy growth and job creation. With this statement we can conclude that Trudeau’s government failed because what he promised never come true meaning majority Canadian started raining blame on his administration regarding stewardship over economic issues.
We posted on our YouTube channel community section, asking Canadians which party’s policies would positively impact Canada’s future. The results were surprising, the majority voted for the Conservative party. Join the discussion on our Scoop Canada YouTube Channel to cast your vote and share your thoughts!
Lastly, troublingly only 30% percent of Canadian no longer believe that either their federal or provincial governments are able to effectively manage immigration and refugee settlement. This erosion of trust is a reflection of the Trudeau government’s perceived mishandling of immigration policies, leaving Canadians feeling vulnerable and uncertain about the future of their communities.
Confederation of Tomorrow survey presents a rather grim picture for Canadian faith in Trudeau as the country’s leader. Rise in number of people who have no confidence in both levels of government keeps showing that this administration by Trudeau has not lived up to its promises and addressed citizens’ concerns.
This survey should serve as a wake-up call for the Trudeau government, as it grapples with the growing disillusionment of the Canadian people. The government must act swiftly to regain the trust of the electorate by implementing meaningful policies that address these issues head on. Failure to do so will only further erode the public’s confidence in government’s ability to lead and govern effectively.
The trend of growing mistrust in the decision-making of the Trudeau government is worrisome as it has far-reaching implications for Canadian’s democratic future. Canadians are looking for leaders who can effectively deal with their worries and bring back their trust in governing institutions. Such task will be a major one that lies ahead of the Trudeau government as they approach the 2024 federal election, where they will have to convince voters to give them an opportunity to lead beyond.
