A new Angus Reid survey shows that as Liberal and NDP supporters rally around Mark Carney’s Liberal leadership bid, voter intentions are virtually neck-and-neck between the Liberal and Conservative parties.
The pollster says with Carney at the head of the party, voter intention has tightened to a three point gap between the Liberals (37 per cent) and Conservatives (40 per cent).
According to Angus Reid, the rise in Liberal support seems to be coming at the expense of the New Democrats who have lost half of their vote intention, from 21 per cent to just 10 per cent.
More Key Findings:
– With Carney as hypothetical Liberal leader, vote intention in Ontario is tied (45% CPC, 44% Liberal). In Quebec, the Liberals split evenly with the Bloc Québécois (31% Liberal, 30% BQ) and lead the CPC by nine points.
– Poilievre has seen his unfavourable views rise to their highest level since taking over the party leadership. He is viewed unfavourably by 56 per cent of Canadians and favourably by 37 per cent.
– NDP leader Jagmeet Singh fares worst among all federal party leaders and hopefuls in net favourability, facing a -25 score. His favourability is positive only among young women.
– The top issues facing Canadians are reported to be the cost of living (52%), health care (39%), and relations with the United States (34%).
