The stakes are high in a looming June 24 federal byelection in a long-held Liberal riding in Toronto, and if Prime Minister Justin Trudeau’s party shows signs of slipping, it could spark a bigger conversation, pollster Nik Nanos(opens in a new tab) says.
“I think a lot of people are going to be reading the entrails on this because we are getting closer to the election. Byelections are sometimes referendums on the government of the day,” Nanos said on the latest episode of CTV News’ Trend Line.
“If it’s close, that’ll create for some … nervous Nellies in the Liberal caucus, and it’s going to be interesting to see what happens.”
It’s an ultra safe seat and Toronto voters are ideological nitwits.
