Canadians don’t support key Tory policies: poll

Majority of Canadians opposed to corporate tax cuts and fighter jet purchase

A new poll conducted for CBC by Environics concludes that Canadians don’t support key Conservative policies, including corporate tax cuts and the F-35 joint strike fighter jet purchase. 53 per cent of Canadians said they don’t support cutting the corporate tax rate to 15 per cent, and 52 per cent said Canada should not purchase F-35 fighter jets. Of the policies that resonate with Canadians, Senate reform had the most support: 65 per cent of those polled agreed on putting an eight-year limit on Senate appointments.
