Trudeau loses a little ground in first polls since blackface scandal
OTTAWA - Canada's Liberal Party lost a little ground to rival Conservatives after bombshell images of Liberal Prime Minister Justin Trudeau in blackface emerged this week, according to two polls published on Saturday.
Conservatives would win 36.8% of the vote and the Liberals 32%, the poll said. The Oct. 21 election day is less than five weeks away. The Liberals were leading in a Mainstreet poll published by iPolitics on Saturday, but had lost 0.4 percentage point from the previous survey compared with a 0.2 percentage-point slide by the Conservatives.
Scheer and Trudeau have been statistically tied in most polls over past few months, with little movement one way or the other. A separate survey by consumer research firm Potloc indicated that disillusioned Liberal voters were most likely to go to either the left-leaning New Democrats or the Greens.
