OTTAWA—At the dawn of a new year that could see the federal Conservatives continue to outpace the slumping Liberals, fresh polling suggests Justin Trudeau and his government are entering 2024 with some of its worst-ever levels of support.
The newest numbers from Abacus Data, shared exclusively with the Star, show that Pierre Poilievre’s Conservatives reversed their five percentage point drop in the polls from December by gaining four points during the research firm’s latest round of polling.
But the findings offer the grimmest outlook yet for the Trudeau Liberals since they ascended to power, with the survey showing that 58 per cent of Canadians disapprove of the current federal government.
