Several polls indicate that the Liberal Party has made a recovery in support in the last two months. The polls suggest differing results, with some showing the Liberals catching up to the Conservatives or in one case even surpassing them, while another shows the Conservatives still maintaining a two-digit lead despite the Liberals gaining more ground since December.
While different methodologies or even formations of questions could account for the wide-ranging results, two major changes have occurred since last year when the Tories held a steady two-digit lead over the Liberals. One is Prime Minister Justin Trudeau’s Jan. 6 announcement of his intention to resign, and the other is the Jan. 20 inauguration of U.S. President Donald Trump, along with his tariff policies and comments about wanting Canada to be part of the United States.
