Justin Trudeau and the Liberal Party remain poised to win next month’s election as the campaign gets underway, a new poll suggests — but the road to a majority government may prove to be a tough one.The Ipsos poll conducted exclusively for Global News found that the Liberals would receive 36 per cent of the vote if the election were held tomorrow, while Erin O’Toole and the Conservatives would earn 31 per cent.
Jagmeet Singh’s NDP would get 20 per cent.Those numbers are virtually the same as the results of Ipsos’ polling from last month, despite 56 per cent of Canadians now saying the election should not have been called during the COVID-19 pandemic.“It doesn’t seem right out of the starting blocks that they’re punishing (Trudeau),” said.
