"A 2004 Leger poll found that only 44 percent of Canadians trust lawyers, a dramatic fall from the 54 percent reported by the same pollster two years previously. (Firefighters headed the 2004 poll, with the trust of 97 percent of Canadians, while politicians were at the bottom with 14 percent). A 2006 Harris poll in the United found that only 18 percent of Americans trust lawyers completely; 50 percent trust doctors completely (top of the poll), and 6% trust stock brokers completely (the bottom)."
