“These numbers are a clear signal to the Liberals that many voters, including large numbers of people on the centre of the spectrum are restless.”
The survey of 2,700 adult Canadians from July 22-27, released Saturday, is bad news for Trudeau and the Liberals, save for the fact the next election is three years away.
Only 33% of Canadians think the country is headed in the right direction, eight to 10 points lower than last year. Trudeau’s net negative approval rating of -20 among Canadians , is far higher than Poilievre’s at -7, despite months of pounding by political and media opponents arguing he is unfit to be prime minister, let alone leader of the Conservative Party.
“The Conservatives are highly competitive, views of Pierre Poilievre are more neutral than some might expect, and not very many people feel good about the direction of the country.”
