Pierre Poilievre’s poor favourability will cost the Conservatives come election time

A large majority of Canadians believe Pierre Poilievre is not the best choice for prime minister.

Pierre Poilievre’s poor favourability will cost the Conservatives come election time

A new study by the Angus Reid Institute has found that net favourability of Pierre Poilievre has reached -18%. Just 37% of Canadians have a positive opinion of the Conservative Party of Canada leader.

A study by Léger also found that, while the Conservatives are leading in the polls, less than 1 in 3 Canadians believe Pierre Poilievre is the best choice for prime minister.

The fact remains that Pierre Poilievre is just not that likeable. He’s divisive, rubs most Canadians the wrong way and a large majority don’t want to see him become prime minister.

As a result, support for the Conservatives will decrease as the next election approaches, and as more light is shed on foreign interference scandals.
