Possible question

I agree with everyone so far that incorporating a federal/provincial element opens the question up to greater dialogue. However, I think Patrick has a good point (if I'm interpreting it correctly) that the federal/provincial element may render the question somewhat vague and off-directional. What I mean by this is that we could pose a question that speaks personally to the respondent's opinion of wage increase in relation to poverty reducement. Maybe we could narrow it down a bit, while still retaining the dual aspect, as in:

"Would you be personally in favour of a provincial wage increase if such a measure would reduce the overall poverty rate in the province?"

a.) Yes b.) No c.) Maybe d.) I don't know
