Should the government increase or decrease foreign aid spending?

We should redirect these foreign aid spending to indigenous communities such as First Nations, Métis, and Inuit communities to insure their health and wellbeing before helping people over seas as it’s important for decolonization.

Decrease until we fix our own problems with lack of funding for vulnerable Canadians: indigenous, disabled and poorer communities need that funding here first

the country is in hella debt right now and can barely afford anything as it is so once the gov. gets our debt situation delt with and becomes smarter with money then yes

Funding should be given to countries in need. We need to send help to the most vulnerbale of our populations as well as our own.

decrease until we solve problems with water purification systems AND proper housing for struggling families in first nation communities

Decrease, we should make sure that everyone has access to adequate resources in Canada first

Support Ukraine

Increase, but only for the countries that desperately need it. (ex: middle eastern countries)

As long as the aid has no malevolent alternative motives

Change the way foreign aid is given to countries. Does it do more harm than good?

Decrease, until Canada's Indigenous peoples have been taken care of. M

Abolish. Focus on Canada first

we should spend money that we know will actually help them not just as a charity, no country will develop off of charity.

Increase if it’s necessary

Aid in helping build up communities and giving money back to the countries that Canada has directly negatively affected. Do not give any more money or aid into foreign military.

More thought and care ahould go into where the money is going and whom it is helping.

Stop sending money for foreign aid! FIX THE PROBLEMS IN CANADA! Reservations should have access to safe and clean water!!!

Yes, but only if funding is left over after spending on Canadian needs (healthcare, mental health, public services etc.) and only to countries that have no human rights violations.

Increase- on the countries that need it most More third world countries

Decrease and use the money to fix our own country first.

To countries that are in crisis or in need we should help out in any way possible

Increase especially for countries with massive human rights violations

Increase, but only for humanitarian causes and not supporting armed conflicts

Increase where it is needed most

don’t even know what that is

Decrease, other countries should only ask for help not all of them want are help

I don't have enough information on the matter to form an opinion

Increase to the countries under the most extreme circumstances.

yes, but our aid needs to be more than a loan and needs to be properly implemented in the state

Increase, but we should not tie it to exploitative demands.

Leave it where it’s at

Decrease, until we solve our own internal issues with Indigenous peoples

Increase, but only for countries who need help

Increase, but not for countries that commit human rights abuses

We should address the huge gaps that exist in this country between Indigenous populations and non-Indigenous populations first.

Neither, we should focus on building key buildings in other nations to help them.

I think Canada should worry about their own citizens who live in poverty and do not have access to mental health care or clean drinking water

Continue to help but also help our homeless, seniors, mental health

Increase, and take all measures to keep our peaceful relations.
