Canada’s Liberals have received another boost in voter support after Prime Minister Mark Carney’s recent tour to China and Davos, Switzerland, with nearly half of Canadians now saying they would likely vote Liberal if a federal election were held today.
The Postmedia-Leger poll was taken Jan. 23–26, after Prime Minister Mark Carney’s trade negotiations with Beijing and his widely covered speech to the World Economic Forum warning against truckling to “hegemons.” It found 47 per cent of respondents would vote for the Liberals, a significant four-point jump compared to an early December Postmedia-Leger poll.

It also shows that satisfaction in the Carney government jumped nine points to 58 per cent and Carney’s own popularity increased by eight points to 59 per cent in the same period.

The poll shows the Liberals’ lead over Pierre Poilievre’s Conservatives, at 38 per cent, has increased to nine points ahead of the opposition party’s convention that will see Poilievre’s support tested by a leadership review in Calgary this weekend.

The online poll, which surveyed 1,611 Canadians, was conducted just days after Carney’s widely noticed speech in Davos about middle powers having to stand up to big ones, and an annoyed response by U.S. President Donald Trump who said Canada was not “grateful” for U.S. help.
