EDITORIAL: Canadians want to cut Ottawa's bureaucracy.

According to an editorial in the Filipino Post, a recent poll commissioned by the Canadian Taxpayers Federation shows that 47% of Canadians want to reduce the number of federal bureaucrats, while less than 30% want to maintain the current number. Only 7% think the government should hire more bureaucrats. Since 2015, Prime Minister Justin Trudeau's government has added 108,793 bureaucrats, a 42% increase, while Canada's population has only grown by 14%. The editorial argues that reducing the bureaucracy is necessary to fix the budget and cut taxes. [Extracted from the article]
