A new poll.


Recommended Posts

Interesting but academic - the BQ is not going to disappear and as SES's national poll of yesterday shows the Conservatives are the poor third party, polling only 17% among Quebec's voters. The BQ at 35% is hardly a party undergoing disintegration, Quebecers will always need a Quebec-only vehicle to vent their nationalism and there is no alternative on the horizon.

Duceppe appears to be one rat leaving a sinking ship. I admire his style, loathe his substance.

This isn't a new poll.

In Quebec, the fallout from the blow-up over Afghanistan has been particularly devastating to Conservative political fortunes.

The latest SES survey shows Harper's party would likely lose some of its existing seats in that province in an imminent election, a dramatic change from only a month ago when some pundits were predicting a 20-seat gain for the Tories.

SES pollster Nik Nanos points out that Quebec has now become a highly volatile see-saw battle between the Liberals and Conservatives, with about 10% of popular opinion swinging back and forth between the two parties on an almost monthly basis.

I think the key words here are "lose some of its existing seats."
