It's nice to see that we no longer trust privatization as a the magic wand that solves public institution problems.
That said I think the 52% support for non-union gig work in Canada Post is indicative of the mindset that needs shifting if Canada is to change course in a way that makes most people better off long term.

Yeah. An older report by Angus Reid from 2019 cited here says that about 60% did not support privatization. That would put privatization support at the time at 40-something, since the union would like to make the opposite number as large as possible. So there's perhaps some trend away from privatization.
