More than 50 percent of Canadians say the size and cost of the federal public service should be scaled back in the years ahead, a new poll suggests.

A  Canadian Taxpayers Federation (CTF) poll conducted by Leger found that 54 percent of respondents would like to see the federal bureaucracy trimmed while 24 percent want it maintained. Only 4 percent said it should be increased and 17 percent said they were uncertain.
