If an election were held today:


Trudeau Liberals up 8 point over Conservatives in popular support if election called



Respondents rated Trudeau by a significant margin as the most decisive, intelligent, and charismatic leader

OTTAWA — A new poll suggests Prime Minister Justin Trudeau would be well placed to fight an election this fall, seen as the leader best able to care for Canadians during the COVID-19 pandemic and to get the economy back on its feet.

Respondents to the poll, conducted by Leger and the Association for Canadian Studies, were split about the prospect of a confidence vote triggering a federal election this fall, with 42 per cent opposed to an election and 38 per cent in favour.

The online survey of 1,516 adult Canadians was conducted Aug. 21-23. It cannot be assigned a margin of error because internet-based polls are not considered random samples.

Leger also pays out in airmiles. It's a limited pool of points fanatics.

When it comes to the candidates, 39 per cent of Canadians said they would vote for the Conservatives if MacKay was the party’s leader. MPs Erin O’Toole and Derek Sloan earned 35 per cent and 31 per cent support for the same question, respectively, while 30 per cent said a Conservative Party led by lawyer Leslyn Lewis would earn their vote.

MacKay was seen as the party leader most likely to defeat the Liberals under Prime Minister Justin Trudeau, earning 22 per cent support. Only seven per cent said that leader would be O’Toole, and Sloan and Lewis each earned three per cent.

Ipsos Factos.



Just days before the Alberta NDP won their election, polls showed the Wild Rose party would be the winner. Polls are meaningless. The only poll that matters or counts (less and less I might add) is the actual vote.

They help people gauge the performance of the government.

As far as elections go, they are entirely spot on in most jurisdictions but yes we all know Alberta can be a 'special' place.
