New Nanos polling: Poilievre's Conservatives now in dead-heat with Trudeau's Liberals | TREND LINE

With the federal health-care funding deal prominently in the headlines and concern over the state of health care towering over other issues of national concern for Canadians, the Liberals seem to be enjoying a corresponding bounce in ballot support and are in a dead-heat with the Conservatives.

Pollster Nik Nanos and Trend Line host Michael Stittle discuss the latest ballot numbers and how the acrimony in Parliament makes it seem like there'll be an election sooner than you might think.

Meanwhile, many Canadians continue to feel the pain financially, with a recent Nanos poll showing a troubling upward trend in the number of people worried about being able to afford housing.

Finally, the truth is out there. Somewhere. Nik and Michael discuss three UFOs and a Chinese balloon, whether this strange saga in the skies might actually strengthen support for Norad.

You gotta be kidding !!!! There's no way it should be that close. Pierre and the Conservatives should be 10 points ahead of Liberals !

[jimbaptista]

Trudeau was never qualified to be PM. What a joke.

[stephenbrian]

Can not believe anyone will vote for Trudeau.

[Woolverine]

Nanos polling has also said the Conservatives have a significant lead over the Liberals & NDP! Pierre draws in the crowds & is giving Canadians hope for a better life & a better Canada. HE CAN DO IT!!

[aidandevlin]

Pierre Poilievre for Prime Minister! Spread the word! 🇨🇦🇨🇦🇨🇦

Jughead only cares about his pension...

[ulrichvonliechtenstein]

Nanos...polling with a predetermined outcome.

[lonewanderer]

If Nanos is saying dead heat, there must be a 20 - 30 point spread favouring the Conservatives.

8 years of dodging questions will aggravate anybody…zero accountability….hard 2 respect

[ronsenetchko]

Was there any of your Nanos polls out west ??? I kinda doubt it

[georgedavidson]

Pierre has more support than you are stating

[handyman]

Housing is one of PP's big priorities... JT? Crickets.. The feeble "top-up" payments and the dental boost will not buy many votes. And our current Leaders have pretty much destroyed our Health Care system.

Can we just convince more than 44.5% of the country to vote... only 14.5% of the country voted for this mess...

[ghebson]

The interviewer said the F 35 has been a political football and kicked down the road but Nanos quickly covers for Justin by saying you can’t blame any Prime Minister because these things takes years to procure, but he fails to mention that 9 other countries currently operate the F 35 on their own soil and so could have Canada.

[markdonaldson]

Wasn't the polling showing the Tories with a 7 percent lead a short while ago? If so, that is a mighty swing...

[jjrossitee]

When Pierre gets in and hacks the budget for your den of serpents i will celebrate.

[Casper]

How many Canadians are actually aware of when the surveys come out?

[sessions]

Like nanos isn't bought and paid for.

[Dhyl_Doh_Ertin]

Regardless of the back and something isn't working it's time for a change. Canada is ready for a change because change can bring hope. I'm ready for some hope after 8 years of watching my paycheck bring home less and less for the dollar. I was ready for change when Harper was voted out... And I feel like we are ready for change again.
