Federal Politics: No Significant Shifts Since Last Poll

April 26, 2025

During the election campaign, we conduct a weekly survey of Canadians to track their voting intentions and gather their views on key federal political issues.

Key highlight of our survey about federal politics

There have been no significant shifts in voting intentions since our last poll. When asked who they would vote for if elections were held today, 43% of Canadians said they would vote for the Liberal Party compared to 39% for Pierre Poilievre’s Conservative Party.

Methodology

The results for this wave of research are based on online research conducted from April 21 to April 25, 2025, with a representative sample of 1,502 Canadian adults 18 years of age and older from Leger’s LEO panel. The data was statistically weighted according to 2021 Canadian Census figures. ​

A margin of error cannot be associated with a non-probability sample in a panel survey, but for comparison purposes, a probability sample of 1,502 would have a margin of error of +/- 2.53%, 19 times out of 20.
