      It’s going to keep rising as long as he keeps making trade deals and focuses on fixing the core issues of housing, productivity and barriers between provinces.

      Cautiously voted for him and have been satisfied thus far.

      >A total of 78% said they felt it was the right thing to do including… and 75% in Ontario.

      Yeah, I don’t think Ford’s stance on EVs is gonna last.

      This deal has been pretty much universally approved, that’s a big win for Carney.

      >More than half of Alberta voters (55%) would prefer a Carney victory.

      That’s insane frankly. That means a huge chunk of people who’d still vote CPC in Alberta prefer Carney to Poilievre.

      >61% have a positive view of Carney personally, compared to 39% who feel the same way about Conservative leader Poilievre… similar to the advantage Poilievre had over Justin Trudeau a year ago. 

      We’re almost a year into the Carney Premiership, and his favourables (Net +30) are still incredibly high. Direct vote intentions remain close, but I’m skeptical if that’s sustainable for Pierre.

      It seems to me like Carney’s detoxifying the liberal brand for a lot of people post-trudeau, rather than his own numbers being dragged down by association. Given that 27% of conservative voters want to see Pierre replaced, I could see the CPC actually losing a bit of ground post-leadership review, as voters who’ve stuck around hoping for someone new finally jump ship (this along with potential floor crossers)

      >*Field dates were January 18-21*

      Pre-Davos Speech, for the most part too. That moved the needle for a lot of folks and was circulated in the news far more than the China deal, it felt like. I’m very curious what the polls look like over the next couple weeks.

      I think he’s doing a great job on foreign policy, not so much on national ones but it seems I am in the minority here. 

      I don’t think PP would have been better on national issues either though
