Mark Carney is the most popular party leader in Canada — by far

According to a new study by the Angus Reid Institute, Mark Carney is the most popular party leader in Canada.

Net favourability of the prime minister and Liberal Party leader sits at +28%, significantly higher than that of Bloc Québécois leader Yves-François Blanchet (+12%), NDP interim leader Don Davies (-16%) and Conservative Party leader Pierre Poilievre (-18%).

Interestingly, Mark Carney’s favourability among NDP voters is 69% — 26 points higher than that of Don Davies (43%).

“It’s been more than a month since Prime Minister Mark Carney secured a new minority mandate for the Liberals, and Canadians are more positive than not about what they’ve seen so far. Roughly 3 in 5 (57%) say they approve of Carney’s performance, double the number who disapprove (29%). Canadians’ positivity extends to several of the new government’s top priorities, notably removing inter-provincial trade barriers and strengthening relationships with other like-minded nations.”

The Angus Reid Institute conducted an online survey from June 2 to 3, 2025, among a randomized sample of 2,072 Canadian adults who are members of Angus Reid Forum.
