Canadian Prime Minister Justin Trudeau’s Liberal Party edged ahead with a two-point lead over its Conservative rival, within the margin of error, according to the latest poll conducted days before Monday’s election.
A survey by Nanos Research found 32.6% of respondents favored the Liberals as their top choice versus 30.3% favouring the Conservative Party led by Andrew Scheer. The New Democratic Party was third with 18.4% support.
Canadians vote on Monday in what’s expected to be one of the closest races in the nation’s history.
The most likely scenario is a government that doesn’t command an absolute majority in its own right and will need seek the support of smaller parties.
