New polling from the Angus Reid Institute offers a fresh look at the state of federal politics, including how Canadians view recent floor crossings and Pierre Poilievre’s leadership.

At the leadership level, the gap between the two main figures remains striking. Among all Canadians, Mark Carney’s favourable rating stands at 59%, compared to just 33% for Poilievre.

Unfavourables tell a similar story: 34% for Carney versus 60% for the Conservative leader. This leaves the Prime Minister with a net approval of +25, while Poilievre sits deep in negative territory at -27.
