Pollster says Canada’s fiscal update didn’t include much on how it will protect jobs

CA, 01 Dec 2020
Darrell Bricker, CEO of Ipsos, spoke to Global News’ Mercedes Stephenson Monday about the Canadian government’s fiscal plan for the next several months, saying the fiscal update didn’t include much information on what the government is planning to protect jobs.

Bricker said the government has provided “interesting opportunities” for the opposition parties to find fault with the government’s fiscal plan.

He said the conservatives will likely point out the government’s lack of plan to protect jobs, as well as the deficit. He added the NDP would be looking for specific details about how the plan will help communities most impacted by COVID-19.

He said based on the fiscal plan provided, it doesn’t appear the government is “prepared” to provide the specific details opposition parties are hoping for.
