Most people in Canada believe that authorities have failed to come up with solutions for challenges faced by communities across the country. A poll released Monday shows that Canadians are not feeling good about the performance of the conservative government led by Prime Minster Stephen Harper. The survey, conducted by the Environics Institute and the Institute on Governance, shows that nearly 70 percent blame the government of Harper for making some of the existing difficulties worse while 60 percent believes that his administration is no longer trustworthy. The latest polls show a drop in support from last December, when in the thick of a Senate expense scandal in the North American country, 56 per cent of respondents said they were unhappy with the government's performance. In 2011, a federal court found that Harper's Conservatives willfully violated the election spending limit, during the campaign which originally brought them to power in 2006. Source URL |
