The Numbers: Are we buying or selling on Carney and Poilievre?
Plus, François Legault hit rock bottom, then the bottom fell out again.
Parliamentarians return to Ottawa next week for what will be the first showdown between Prime Minister Mark Carney and Conservative leader Pierre Poilievre in the House of Commons. It’ll be the official kick-off for the fall political season. Who will come out on top?
This week on The Numbers, after delving into the latest poll numbers, Eric and Philippe play a little game of “buy or sell” — buying the parties and leaders we think will end the season higher in the polls than where they are today, and selling those we think could end up in a worse spot.
Plus, we also chat about an upcoming provincial by-election in New Brunswick and break down the latest goings-on in Quebec, where Premier François Legault’s government is up against the ropes as a new poll shows the CAQ at rock bottom.
