How is Mark Carney doing?
The polls suggest he’s doing just fine.
Here’s a summary:
– Carney’s Liberals are ahead by an astonishing 23 points in Ontario and 27 points in Quebec, says the aggregator Polling Canada
– Nanos gives the Grits an 11-point lead over the Tories, and a 32-point lead over the NDP, and says that Carney more than doubles (51%) Poilievre (23%) for preferred Prime Minister
– A Polling Canada seat projection suggests that all means 196 seats for Carney and only 121 for Pierre Poilievre’s Conservatives
– Angus Reid Institute says almost 60% of the country approve of Carney’s performance
