PeePee and the Cons seem to have been consistently polling a few percentage points higher than Trudeau and the Liberals have at the federal level lately. And generally speaking, when the economy isn't doing well, the incumbents get tossed out regardless of whether it is actually their fault or not.
In that sense, I am really kind of gloomy about the Liberals being able to pull out another win. Potentially, a change in leadership might draw some of the swing voters back, but I don't really see that happening for now.
