Ontario budget survey finds that respondents’ preferences aren’t reflected in current policies
. However, only 22 per cent selected lowering taxes, 18 per cent building infrastructure, and 15 per cent making communities safer. For both of these questions, respondents asked for a budget that is more in line with the priorities of an NDP or Liberal government than the current Progressive Conservative government.
Asked to give two top priorities, 60 per cent selected building or improving public transit, 43 per cent chose improving traffic congestion in urban areas, and 41 per cent cited building infrastructure for biking. However, only 19 per cent chose highways that cut down on commute time , and 12 per cent selected improving access to the 400 series highways .
The questions all give respondents the option of checking “other” and then writing in a comment. Experts in survey design include the most likely expected answers as options to minimize the frequency of “other” answers. It is no surprise that the percentage of respondents checking “other” was a relatively high 11 to 22 per cent, depending on the question.
