Canada: Disenchantment with Justin Trudeau-led govt continues unabated, finds poll
Hindustan TimesToronto: Seventy per cent of Canadians believe the country is “broken”, even as more citizens now prefer the ‘None of the Above’ option for the country’s next Prime Minister to the current incumbent Justin Trudeau. Prime Minister Justin Trudeau meets workers as he tours new construction at Edgemont Flats housing complex during an announcement of new funding for housing in Edmonton, Alberta, Canada, on February 21. Disenchantment with the Trudeau-led Liberal Party government continues unabated in the country, as a new survey by the agency for Leger for Postmedia found 70% of respondents agreeing with the sentiment “everything is broken in the country right now”. Agency head Nik Nanos said of Poilievre’s prospects: “He’s basically in the driver’s seat in terms of the ballot numbers and also in the driver’s seat when it comes to who Canadians today at least would prefer as Prime Minister.” Statistical projections from 338 Canada show that if the elections were to be held today, the Conservative would get a comfortable majority with 206 seats, with the Liberals at 67.
