The Federal Government's decision to reduce immigration targets has emerged as one of the most popular measures in the Budget 2025, garnering support from 74% of Canadians according to a recent Leger poll.

The move, aimed at easing pressure on housing availability and public services, comes as the Carney government's budget faces divided public opinion overall.

While only 30% of Canadians view the budget positively, the immigration reduction stands out alongside a $51 billion infrastructure investment as measures receiving broad approval.

The budget's focus on long-term economic growth over immediate affordability has sparked debate, with nearly half of respondents calling for faster deficit reduction and tighter fiscal discipline moving forward.
