Canada’s ruling Liberals, who a few weeks ago looked certain to lose an election this year, are mounting a major comeback amid the threat of US tariffs and are tied with their rival Conservatives, according to three new polls.
An Ipsos survey released late on Tuesday showed the left-leaning Liberals have 38% public support and the official opposition right-of-center Conservatives have 36%. The Liberals have overturned a 26-point deficit in six weeks, and run advertisements comparing Conservative leader, Pierre Poilievre, to Donald Trump.
It’s the Guardian so take it with a Big Grain of Salt. Two things to remember…
1) As Nanos noted the LPC has no leader and therefore no focus for voter ire.
2) Lorrie Goldstein reminds us of the Kamala Bump and how that ended.
