Is Saskatchewan's best still ahead?

51% of residents think the province's best days are ahead of it. Just 25% say they're behind it.

But among those under 30, pessimism wins: 44% say the best days are behind, compared with 38% who say ahead.

[Abacus Data @abacusdataca]

More Saskatchewan residents think their province is heading in the wrong direction (41%) than the right direction (35%).

Among those under 30, the gap is much wider: 49% wrong direction vs. just 20% right direction.

A warning sign for the province's leadership.

One of the biggest findings in our new Saskatchewan poll is the generational divide.

86% of residents 60+ say Saskatchewan is a good or excellent place to live.

Among those under 30, just 47% feel that way.

Young people see a very different Saskatchewan.

[Abacus Data @abacusdataca]

Saskatchewan residents love where they live, but they're less sure about where the province is headed.

69% say Saskatchewan is a good or excellent place to live.

But 41% say it's heading in the wrong direction, compared with 35% who say the right direction.

We're growing our presence in Saskatchewan!

Following our acquisition of Probe Research, Abacus Data has launched a new quarterly Saskatchewan omnibus.

Our latest survey of 1,000 residents finds strong provincial pride, economic anxiety and a significant generational divide.

More research and insights to come!

Canada's political mood is fascinating right now.

47% think Canada is heading in the right direction.

Just 13% say the same about the world, and 12% about the United States.

Against that backdrop, Carney's Liberals have reached 48%, their highest support since 2016.

https://t.co/hANOfRl0BI

[Abacus Data @abacusdataca]

Mark Carney continues to hold a substantial personal advantage over Pierre Poilievre.

Carney net impression: +29
Poilievre: -8

A 37-point gap.

The PM's personal standing is positive in every region of Canada, including Alberta.

https://t.co/lcpdRyiT4S

[Abacus Data @abacusdataca]

The Liberal coalition is geographically broad.

Ontario: Liberal +18
BC: Liberal +18
Quebec: Liberal +21 over Bloc
Atlantic Canada: Liberal +32

The Conservatives lead in Alberta, while the parties are tied in Saskatchewan and Manitoba.

[Abacus Data @abacusdataca]

New Abacus Data poll: The Liberals have reached 48% support, their highest level in our tracking since April 2016.

That was during Justin Trudeau's first year as PM.

A decade later, Mark Carney has brought the Liberals back to that level.

https://t.co/lcpdRyiT4S

[Abacus Data @abacusdataca]

The Liberal lead has widened to 16 points in our latest Abacus Data poll.

Liberals: 48% (+2)
Conservatives: 32% (-2)
NDP: 9%
Bloc: 6%
Greens: 3%

The Liberals are now polling at their highest level in more than a decade.

https://t.co/lcpdRyiT4S

[Abacus Data @abacusdataca]

Almost 6 in 10 Canadians approve of the Carney government's performance.

Approve: 59% (+2)
Disapprove: 26% (-3)
Net approval: +33

Despite considerable economic anxiety, the government continues to enjoy substantial public support.

https://t.co/lcpdRyiT4S

[Abacus Data @abacusdataca]

Here's the contradiction at the heart of Canadian politics right now.

59% approve of the Carney government overall.

But only 31% approve of its handling of the cost of living and inflation.

Canadians are separating their economic frustrations from their assessment of leadership.

https://t.co/hANOfRl0BI

[Abacus Data @abacusdataca]

Donald Trump remains a major political advantage for the Liberals.

Among Canadians who identify Trump as a top issue, 67% think the Liberals would handle him best.

Just 14% choose the Conservatives.

That's a 53-point advantage in our latest Abacus Data poll.

[Abacus Data @abacusdataca]

The last time we measured Liberal support this high was April 2016, during Justin Trudeau's first year as PM.

A decade later, Mark Carney's Liberals are at 48%, leading the Conservatives by 16 points.

LPC: 48%
CPC: 32%
NDP: 9%
BQ: 6%
Green: 3%

New federal polling from Abacus Data:

LPC: 48%
CPC: 32%
NDP: 9%
BQ: 6%
Green: 3%

The Liberals lead by 16 points.

And 59% of Canadians approve of the Carney government.

Two numbers that show just how much the political environment has changed.

Our latest Winnipeg mayoral poll tells a fascinating story.

Voters want change. The incumbent has lost considerable support. A challenger is surging.

Yet Scott Gillingham remains in the strongest position to win.

Unless the change vote consolidates, this remains Gillingham's race to lose.
