The BC vote intention numbers are actually quite concerning for the Liberals, as are the virtual tie between them and the Bloc in Quebec. Currently, they don’t seem to have benefitted in Alberta from the MOU.
Edit: also mildly surprising that Nova Scotians are second, at 20%, when it comes to caring about climate issues by province (Quebecers are unsurprisingly no. 1 at 23%, British Columbians are at 18%).

The same survey shows that federal voting intention in BC is down 5 points for the Liberals. So Carney’s approval has remained steady, but the Liberals‘ has not. The only areas where the Liberals have enjoyed an increase since Nov 7 is Ontario and the Atlantic provinces.
So hats off to those of you who were suggesting the MOU was a play to increase vote share in Ontario.
>Voters in Metro Vancouver have shifted considerably after the pipeline project announcement. Compared to early November, support for the Liberals has dropped by 15 points.
And that’s where the Liberal seats happen to be in BC.

Disappointed to see the Greens picking up twice as much in Metro Vancouver as the NDP in the wake of this but it’s really not surprising with the state of the party right now. Luckily there’s a leadership race in progress to renew our fortunes and finally turn the page on the abysmal performance of the past eight years.
It’s interesting that the CPC is up 6 in Metro over the same timeframe. Clearly that’s not good for the Liberals either. Still, I would submit that there’s probably a greater array of possible reasons for that gain than there is for the Green and NDP gains. I don’t think there’s any explanation for those gains other than the MOU, so movement of 6 points toward the left/environment parties in less than a week looks even more significant to me. Fascinating political times. This thing might actually be a real ball and chain (wink) around the Libs.

It’s surprising clicking the link because the headline paints one picture which is immediately contrasted by the sub-line:
>Liberals lose ground on vote intention in B.C., however, with Green Party and CPC picking up defectors
The CPC are now tied to the LPC in Metro Vancouver – CPC (41%) vs Liberal (39%). I would bet LPC strategists are concerned.

Can someone tell me if Metro Vancouver includes the suburbs like Surrey and Richmond ? Cause the massive swing to the conservatives in Metro Vancouver would make a ton of sense of it includes the suburbs as people genuinely seem to forget how big of a deal all the extortion killings have been in the South Asian community. The Liberals have done nothing about this and South Asians there legit feel like they are in a war zone. If this keeps up I expect a conservative sweep in Surrey.
