A new poll on how Canadians think about where they fit in the economic scheme of things offers support for both Prime Minister Justin Trudeau’s pitch that Canada is prosperous under his Liberal government and Conservative Leader Andrew Scheer’s contrasting claim that too many families just aren’t getting ahead.
Considering the economy as a whole, Pollara found that about six out of 10 Canadians say they’re confident that a middle-class life is attainable for them through hard work. Of parents polled, 77 per cent were optimistic about their children’s chances of landing in middle-class bliss. Despite that gloomy mood about their own savings, the share of Canadians who feel their income has not kept pace with the cost of living dropped significantly in 2019 to 67 per cent, the poll suggests, down from 78 per cent when Pollara surveyed on the same issues in 2018. Most respondents were confident they’ll keep their jobs, with just 14 per cent feeling that a worker in their household is somewhat or very likely to lose their job in the next 12 months.
