"We have four polls in the last six weeks that have the Conservatives above the 20 per cent mark in Quebec, so this seems to be more than just fluctuation. It seems to be a modest but real trend upward for the Conservatives," said Philippe J. Fournier, a poll analyst and founder of 338Canada.com -- which commissioned the Pallas Data poll -- in an interview.

CPC is currently polling in Quebec at their highest number seen since 1988's PC Mulroney and before the Bloc Quebecois. The highest Harper was 23% in 2006, and CPC has been doing notably poorly in Quebec for quite some years. Most notable is the Liberal support spiraling down to below 30% where they may be losing on some traditionally safe Liberal areas in the Montreal area.
Atlantic, a Liberal stronghold in the past also has CPC trending upwards and neck and neck. We may be seeing a united Canada from coast to coast with a clear message of anger with reality of poor Liberal policies and perceived lack of action on issues that matter to Canadians setting in. The most recent Meta fiasco surely will not be seen as a positive but elections are still a long time away and lots can happen (something conservatives need to remember and not stupidly provide a wedge issue on a silver platter)
