Pierre Poilievre has been heavily criticizing the Liberals on cost-of-living issues, and the latest Nanos numbers show his Conservatives are still in strong majority territory.

Host Michael Stittle and pollster Nik Nanos discuss how Conservatives are making significant gains across the country, including in traditional Liberal strongholds in the Greater Toronto Area and British Columbia, according to Nanos seat projections.

Meanwhile, the Liberal government's recent economic measures, such as the GST/HST holiday and $250 payments to low-income Canadians, have been poorly received by the public. And while economic uncertainty increases in Canada amid concerns about a potential recession, the timing of the next federal election is also up in the air.

Prime Minister Justin Trudeau’s Liberal government rolls out a plan for tax relief and rebate cheques, but Nik Nanos calls it a ‘well-intentioned, epic failure.’ The exclusion of non-working seniors has prompted a swift backlash.

The NDP tries to gain from the Liberals’ messy roll-out, as ballot tracking shows them close behind.

Michael and Nik also discuss the latest provincial election result as premiers rush to get ahead of a possible federal election, and the impact of Donald Trump’s tariff threat.
