    Apparently a lot of people, top on the list right now for people wanting to come here, top on the list for economic immigrant class wanting to come here and just yesterday I listened to an economist who was saying Canada was the new safe haven for money fleeing Europe because the US market is overpriced. Sunny ways....

    Apparently 73% of the public want those insurgents to just go home, so I suppose they also support the EMA.

    But look at the great risk involved for the original owners of Canada and who did not cede their territory, possibly being murdered by the OPP or being killed by the army, sent into action on them by previous Conservative Governments.

    Yes, yes... did you read it.. some rather disgusting results, the media sure is working hard ... but even still
    "Canadians are most critical of Trudeau: two-thirds (65%) say he has hurt the situation, three times as many who say he has helped (20%)"

    Sad to think 20% are so out of touch with reality

    For context purposes 42% said the same for Bergen.

    A lot of people are putting up for sale signs and leaving after watching the show in Ottawa too and leaving Canada for good, some already seen this coming and fled. FYI US market is far more affordable than Canadas especially when the liberal gov't seizes your bank account for buying a T shirt that may change though if congress approves asylum to truckers and protestors. You might get your liberal majority after all. Sunny ways my friend have fun paying for it all. LMAO

    Based on the percentage of Lib and NDP that dogmatically disliked the protest.... should be a sign for the future, if there is anything salvageable left of Canada

    Just about everyone I’ve discussed it with was supportive of the protest. Guess I’m not a high-society type …..

    Nearly three-quarters of Canadians want convoy protesters to 'go home now': survey

    Nearly three-quarters of Canadians want convoy protesters to “go home now,” according to a new survey from the Angus Reid Institute. The public opinion poll also found that more than two-thirds of Canadians think Prime Minister Justin Trudeau’s actions have made the situation worse.

    “If the goal of the Freedom Convoy was to capture the attention of millions of people in Canada and around the globe – mission accomplished,” the report from Angus Reid says. “If, however, the goal was to build support for their demands to end pandemic-related restrictions – it has backfired utterly.”

    The survey comes after more than two weeks of protests against COVID-19 mandates in Ottawa and across Canada. The Trudeau government is now invoking the Emergencies Act to deal with ongoing demonstrations.

    Seventy-two per cent of respondents in the Angus Reid poll said protesters should “go home now, they have made their point.” Ninety-three per cent supported some sort of action to remove them, with 68 per cent wanting the police or military to do so by force. Just 26 per cent said politicians should negotiate a solution. Forty-four per cent even said the protests made them more inclined to support measures like indoor masking and showing proof of vaccination at the Canada-U.S. border.

    Only 22 per cent of respondents said protesters should “stay in Ottawa and other protest sites until their demands are met.”

    Even if the majority of respondents weren’t supportive of continued protests, they certainly were paying attention: nearly two-thirds, or 64 per cent, reported they were following developments closely while just one per cent said they had never heard about them.

    Respondents also blamed a cast of politicians for making matters worse, with 65 per cent pointing out Trudeau and 42 per cent criticizing interim Conservative leader Candice Bergen. The premiers of Ontario and Alberta were also similarly criticized by 50 and 49 per cent of respondents.

    The findings were based on an online survey of 1,622 Canadian adults conducted between Feb. 11 and 13. The Angus Reid Institute describes itself as a national not-for-profit that conducts opinion polls and research on issues affecting Canadians.
