As the vaccine slowly starts to roll out across Canada, the Liberal party's popularity is also starting to pick up, according to the results of a new poll released on Thursday
The poll would suggest that 38 percent of Canadians would vote Liberal if the election were right now. This is considered to be enough extra votes to give them back their previously-enjoyed majority.
According to a poll done for Hill Times, the poll was performed for them by Abacus Data, and indicated an eight-point lead over their rival conservatives country-wide.
Regionally, Ontario had them at 44 percent to 28 percent over their Conservative rivals. In neighbouring Quebec, the Liberal party has 37 percent of the people's support, still giving them a healthy seven-point lead over the Bloc, who clocked in at 30 percent in this poll.
The CEO of Abacus Data, David Coletto, said:
"I think people are more optimistic about the vaccines, and when they’re going to be able to get one. We even see far more people think they’re going to get it by June than did even a few weeks ago. So that explains some of the improvement that the Liberals have seen and their vote."
