“… The latest Nanos federal ballot tracking has the Conservatives now at 41.0 per cent, 15 points ahead of the Liberals at 25.7 per cent. The NDP, meanwhile, are sitting at 17.3 per cent, the Bloc at 8.9 per cent, the Green Party at 4.2 per cent and the Peoples Party at 2.6 per cent.
Nanos says it’s young people, who he called a swing-voting block, appear to be deserting the Liberal government.
“In 2015, Justin Trudeau built his majority around many enthusiastic and positively minded young people who were progressive,” he said. “Fast forward now, and those same young people have deserted the Liberals and are looking at the Conservatives probably because of the anxiety and frustration they are having with the rising cost of living and housing.”
