In the recent poll by Nanos Research Canadians indicated support for laissez-faire economic policies over government intervention as their favoured means of dealing with the economic downturn. The numbers were 53% in support of laissez-faire policies such as doing nothing, lowering taxes, or reducing the debt to 44% who favoured interventionist strategies such as creating jobs or raising wages. The remainder supported measures which could not really be characterized as either laissez-faire or interventionist such as changing the country’s leadership.
