Results of a Leger/Postmedia poll show the Ontario PCs with a 14\u002Dpoint lead over the Liberals

Results of a Leger/Postmedia poll show the Ontario PCs with a 14-point lead over the Liberals who are in a tight race with the NDP for second place.

That’s a two per cent jump for the Tories from January, but a one point drop for both the Liberals and NDP compared to similar polling earlier this year. “That’s a little on the low side, which suggests to me that the campaign is still going to be an important one.” Just 28 per cent of respondents reported a favourable impression of Liberal Leader Steven Del Duca — who Tossutti said continued to be haunted by a lack of name recognition. Del Duca sits eight points ahead of the Green Party’s Mike Schreiner.One year ago, Ford commanded exactly half of the province’s favour, with Horwath at 40 per cent, Del Duca at 21 per cent and Schreiner at 20 per cent.

“The ideological orientations of Ontarians are essentially centrist and down the middle, so it’s a tough environment for the NDP in general.”While voters seem split on which of the two leaders they like better, that parity doesn’t carry over to which leader Ontarians disapprove of.Del Duca and Schreiner were ranked 39 and 32 per cent respectively by respondents on the unfavorability factor.

Rising COVID-19 indicators in Ontario prompt calls for expanded access to PCR testsLiberal House Leader John Fraser said ‘a sixth wave is upon us’ and therefore the government should broaden access to the tests, a call echoed by NDP Leader Andrea Horwath If you don't test, you can't have cases. OnPoli Ford started measures too late & lifted them too early 5X, so far. Variants ruined his deadlines & confirmed his stupidity of projecting dates. He then FUDGED THE FACTS via test suppression. His 'army of 14.7M' continues to survive despite him. Honnest question. Unless in hospital, what is the use of a PCR test? It is not automated. You have to send it to a lab, we know how that works, you may get the result AFTER you healed. Or went to ER.
