Other various polls have Ignatieff at about the same popularity as Harper in Quebec suggesting the Liberals have a huge hill to climb in that province. |
Just remember that polls this early are just a smidge above having no importance whatsoever.
There is a reason MI said what he did. The Libs have to have internal polling in swing ridings that make them think its now or never.
No one is thinking about an election in these early polls, the case on either side has not been raised - wait until a week or 2 into the election call and then the polls start to have a better picture.
In Quebec I think the best thing is to hammer at the Bloc for being haters of Canada. I know it doesnt play well and likely sees the Bloc win the majority of seats there again but until provincial politics there kills it, or until something drastic happen I dont think any Federal party should give one inch to the Bloc. They are more embarrasing to Canada then the Khadr family IMO.
