How to deal with bad polls

If Justin Trudeau’s polling numbers eventually improve, even if it’s just a slight improvement, he can jump on that good news and brag about how he now has momentum on his side. But right now, his polling numbers are not good.

Prime Minister Justin Trudeau, pictured with his family on July 1, 2022, at the Canada Day celebration in Ottawa, has been polling badly lately, painting a bleak picture for his government. A recent Abacus poll indicated that 51 per cent of Canadians have a negative view of his government, the highest number ever recorded since the Liberals were elected in 2015.
