Montreal is the most anti-Pierre Poilievre city in Canada

According to a new study by the Angus Reid Institute, 36% of Canadians have a favourable opinion of Conservative Party of Canada leader Pierre Poilievre, including just 18% of people in Montreal, the city where positive impressions of Poilievre are lowest.

Conversely, a majority of Canadians (60%), including 76% of Montrealers, say they have a negative opinion of Poilievre.

Net favourability of Pierre Poilievre currently sits at -24% nationally. In Montreal, that percentage decreases to -58%.

Previously, the city where Poilievre was found to be most favoured was Calgary (41%).

Overall, a majority of Canadians across all age groups, income and education levels have a negative opinion of Pierre Poilievre. (For the complete table of results, please see page 1 in the report here.)

The Liberals are now projected to win a majority in the next federal election.

The Angus Reid Institute conducted an online survey from April 10 to 13, 2025, among a randomized sample of 2,216 Canadian adults who are members of Angus Reid Forum.
