Mark Carney's Liberals went 3 for 3 in the by-elections last night, including an increase in their share of the vote in Terrebonne. Notable about last night is how poorly the CPC did in these ridings, falling well below the 2025 vote share. This doesn't suggest an LPC +6% national lead. It's likely closer to 15%.

The Conservative Party has been the best funded and organised party in Canada for years. The leader chose to sit out these by-elections rather than fight alongside his candidates. His party lost share, badly. Some see clever calculation, others weak leadership.

Our new polling shows Liberals lead by 14. Most of those who voted NDP and BQ, and a third of those who voted Conservative last year, approve of Mark Carney's efforts to date. Read more from @bruceanderson: sparkadvocacy.ca/insights/2026/…

Who cares where they were born? When I see racist stuff like this from CPC pundits, it makes me want to vote Liberal.

Reporter: Did you post that picture of yourself depicted as Jesus Christ? Trump: It wasn't a depiction. I did post it and I thought it was me as a doctor. And had to do with red cross as a red cross worker, which we support and only the fake news could come up with that one.

So, a couple of the boys have been texting me: “Why the hell would Trump drop the Hormuz blockade bomb on a Sunday? It’ll send oil screaming past $120, maybe $130 if the algos really panic. Makes zero sense if you actually want cheaper barrels.” But it makes perfect sense. Beautiful, even. See, Tokyo and Hong Kong are already humming by the time the East Coast is still nursing its coffee. Those futures pits—Dow, S&P, the whole equity complex, plus Brent and WTI on the screens—never really sleep. You’ve got fourteen, fifteen hours of runway before the New York bell. Plenty of time for the right hands to lean in: long the indices in Hong Kong, short the crude in Tokyo, riding the fear wave as the blockade tweet lights up every terminal from Singapore to Sydney. Then, right on cue, before the U.S. opens, comes the pivot. Something about “there’s regime change in Tehran,” “we can do business,” “Talks were Good,” the usual art-of-the-deal baloney. Markets whip around like they’ve been Tasered. Oil gives back the spike, stocks rip higher. The boys in Asia unwind clean, pocket the spread. A few hundred million, maybe more, conjured out of thin air on the back of one perfectly timed Sunday morning post. Not bad for a morning’s work. The Street’s been running these kinds of games for decades: information, timing, leverage. Just never quite so… presidential!!

@chrispyross Completely agree with this. David is a friend and an excellent researcher. We just disagree on how to most accurately measure political intentions and attitudes today. It's possible that he has it right, I just don't see it the same way.

@bruceanderson I think in the long run, firms being more transparent with their methodology will perform better. It builds stronger instincts

The challenge I think lies in assuming the dynamics of these three elections represent norms, rather than a phase. Attachments are more fluid, polarization also deeper at the same time, and culture wars and cancellation were all factors that may not be norms.

Does It Improve Accuracy? The empirical answer is yes Looking at our final polls in the last three federal elections, applying past vote weighting increased Conservative vote estimates, reduced Liberal vote estimates, and brought our numbers closer to the actual result.

A good debate to have. I think past vote weight introduces more risk of error. Among other factors, almost 10% say they don’t remember how they voted last year. People can also tend to say they did the thing that is now more popular than it was, and understate the opposite.

I don’t believe the Liberals are leading by double digits and I’ll have a new analysis of 10+ years of Abacus Data and the under representation of conservative voters in samples coming out next week. The 2025 election is also an interesting case study. If you aren’t trying to correct for this in your weighting then I think you’re introducing error into your estimates.
