After months of record-breaking unpopularity, U.S. President Donald 
Trump’s trade fights with Canada appear to have suddenly given the 
Liberals a fighting chance of re-election.

While the Conservatives remain on track to win a majority in the next 
election, multiple polls are showing the Liberals rebounding to levels 
not seen since the summer of 2023.

Only a month ago, electoral projections were showing the Conservatives 
likely to win a historic landslide with the Bloc Québécois in opposition 
and the Liberal Party bumped to a distant fourth place.

Now, if an election was held tomorrow, the likely result would be a 
conventional Conservative majority with the Liberals in opposition.

In the last week, four consecutive polls have shown the Liberals 
capturing around 30 per cent of the popular vote.

These are still comparatively dismal numbers for the Liberals, but it 
was as recently as Dec. 30 that an Angus Reid Institute poll pegged the 
Liberals with a rock-bottom 16 per cent — the lowest result for the 
Liberals in the entire history of Canadian polling.

By contrast, a Feb. 6 poll by Pallas Data put the Liberals at 33.7 per 
cent against 39.6 per cent for the Conservatives. When projected out by 
election modeller Raymond Liu, the Pallas numbers still yielded a 
Conservative majority of 173 seats, but with vast sections of Greater 
Toronto and Atlantic Canada still in Liberal hands.
