Jobs, economy top voters' priorities at the end of a turbulent 2025: Nanos poll
More than 20% of Canadians cite jobs and the economy as their top concerns for 2026, far surpassing other issues like U.S. relations and immigration, Nanos poll shows.
- Published Dec. 31, 2025, the Nanos poll found jobs and the economy topped Canadian voter concerns, with just over one in five respondents naming economic issues most important.
- Chief data scientist Nik Nanos said Canadians are broadly pessimistic about the economy and their finances as they head into 2026, reflecting voter priorities captured in the poll.
- More than 1,000 respondents were interviewed in the four weeks leading up to Dec. 26, with a margin of error of plus or minus three percentage points, Nanos said.
- Other issues in the top five included inflation, health care and immigration, and 10 per cent named relations with the United States and President Donald Trump.
- A separate Nanos poll shows consumer confidence is firmly neutral heading into the new year.
