Trudeau’s grip on Montreal cracks as Bloc, Conservatives gain ground

Support for Prime Minister Justin Trudeau has sharply declined in Montreal, one of his party’s last political strongholds, marking a dramatic shift in a city long considered a Liberal bastion, according to new polling.

As public dissatisfaction grows, even Trudeau’s once-secure base — home to his House of Commons seat — now appears vulnerable.

Trudeau’s “unpopularity, along with broader discontent with the Liberal party, has eroded support even in areas that previously seemed unassailable,” the Angus Reid Institute reported on Tuesday.
