As the Liberals consider their best way forward from the Durham byelection—which was widely seen as confirming many of the recent in trends in national polling—the party will need a “fundamentally different” approach if it is to be in a position to retain government, says pollster David Coletto.
Coletto, CEO of Abacus Data, told The Hill Times that drilling down beyond the top line numbers in his polling shows the Liberals are struggling “across the board”—through nearly all regions, issues, and demographics—and there is “no evidence” right now that Prime Minister Justin Trudeau (Papineau, Que.) can be the one to turn it around.
