Further to the poll posted by troutman...

Quote:
One half of the randomly selected Canadian adults who took part in a Forum Research poll earlier this month said they had seen the television ad in which Mr. Trudeau is filmed while taking off his shirt at a fundraiser and a voiceover says “he’s in over his head.”

A little more than a third said they had seen another ad that the Liberals put out in response in which Mr. Trudeau sits on a schoolroom desk and says “together we will build a better country.”

Of those who had seen the ad, half said it will make them more likely to vote Liberal. That compares with the 19 per cent who said it makes them more likely to vote Conservative.

Even among Conservative supporters, one in 10 who had seen the ad said it makes them more likely to vote Liberal.

On the other hand, half of respondents who had seen the pro-Trudeau ad said it made them more likely to vote Liberal while 20 per cent said it will prompt them to vote Conservative and 15 per cent said it will push them towards the NDP.

Respondents were not given the option to say their views were unchanged.

The interactive voice response telephone survey of 1,779 Canadians was conducted on May 21 and 22, as the scandal in the Senate was unfolding. It is expected to accurately reflect the views of the population at large within 2 percentage points 19 times in 20.
