"a new poll suggests a majority of people in this country want the public system expanded and that 
they are willing to pay more taxes to make that happen."

We all know this is misleading. It is the usual deceptive tactics used by the socialist parties. The vast majority of taxpayers want others to pay more. And, as we also know, most of the tax burden in Canada is carried by the top 20% of income earners. Under a progressive tax system, no one should be surprised that a poll would reach this conclusion. Under a flat tax system (Liberals greatest fear), the poll would be very different.
