Current Canadian Poll on Leadership Preferences Conducted by The Epoch Times

 Canadian Poll on Leadership Preferences Conducted by The Epoch Times. Up to January 27 2025, 4,000 people have tabulated responses. As with many polls of this type the "recency  effect" carries some weight in forming peoples opinions. In addition, Canada is at the end of a tumultuous 9  year period being governed by Justin Trudeau's Liberal Party, in essence, a Party focused around one person. The Prime Minster's Office has devolved into a cult of personality" around Justin Trudeau that will many years to rebuild. In true Liberal and political fashion, the new Liberal leader facing a pending Ma election, will surely try to buy votes  with cash incentives as the national Conservative Party  of Canada has been leading by approximately 20 points for the past year; currently 45% CPC to 22% LPC as of January 26 per 338Canada.com <https://338canada.com.> The Provincial Conservative Party and Government has just sent out $200.00 cheques to individuals with  the expectation of an election being called on January 29 2025. Justin Trudeau is expected to make a raft of patronage appointments to the Senate before leaving office. His father, Pierre, as Canadian PM in 1984, skewered his Liberal Party by making numerous patronage appointments that led to the Liberal Party being decimated in the following election by Brian Mulroney's  Progressive Conservative Party (211-40 seats.) Expect more of the same political capitulation in May. Former Canadian and Bank of England Governor, Mark Carney is expected to take the reins of the Liberal Party. Carney has rumoured to favour a Guaranteed  Basic Income as AI is replacing human jobs. The crux of the matter is the Canadian deficit has doubled during Trudeau's  nine years in office to 1.248 trillion CDN. Excessive spending by Ottawa, the pandemic aside.  The next PM will need to attack a bloated immigration system, while the government now spends more on servicing the debt than health care. The Liberal  Party of Canada Party has boxed themselves in as well as their successors and the average Canadian.
