The results come at a time when divides over regional interests and government-led responses to the COVID-19 pandemic have remained a central issue in Canadian politics. In his acceptance speech earlier this week Trudeau sought to downplay the divisions within Canada, saying “that’s not what I see.”
Respondents in Alberta were most likely to believe Canada is more divided than ever, at 88 per cent, followed by Saskatchewan, Manitoba, and Ontario , Atlantic Canada , and Quebec . Fifty-one per cent of respondents said Conservative leader Erin O’Toole should step down. Just 33 per cent believed Bloc leader Yves-François Blanchet should resign, and 31 per cent for NDP leader Jagmeet Singh.
After presenting the election as a referendum on the Liberals’ broad economic recovery plans and the future composition of the Canadian economy, politicians spent the majority of their oxygen addressing marginal partisan issues like gun control or higher income taxes for the wealthy.
National Post, stop using BS polls to promote your right wing worldview and instead try doing some actual journalism
100%!!!
danilovesart The proper thing would be for the party to oust JustinTrudeau . We elect local MPs & those votes are carried over to the selection of TrudeauworstPMever. Unfair because many local Lib MPs are very good. It is the local MPs that have a responsibility to change their leader.
Geraldi47763339 Trudeau is a real disappointment to many
More Canadians want centralist policies which is why Justin was re-elected ahead of your divisive Cons. Your very biased paper and Post Media are the real dividers of this country, fanning or creating flames of division for political gain.
I hope so! He called an election, didn’t get what he wanted, wasted everyone’s time and money. It would be the only honourable thing he could do. Oh wait did I say honourabl?
He is such a phoney..gets away with everything.
ryck_nancy 100 Percent Agreed! I have never been less proud to be Canadian. Thanks to our Fake PM.
Trudeau and the liberals have proven real leadership through one of the worst times in Canada's history with this pandemic and has helped ALL Canadians and provinces, no division just political propaganda from the closed minded?
What then? Only to be replaced by Mark Carney? Out of the frying pan and into the fire.
What a crock of ...........!
Believes? Uhmm it's a fact. Honestly it seems like the division is intentional.
Congratulations Justin
Should step aside. Ego won’t let him.
Must be a small sample questioned. I know many feel the opposite.
WHY HASN’T HEALTH CANADA PULLED THE PLUG ON THESE KILL SHOTS?! “Israeli scientists began observing a worrisome rise in infections in severe illness and death among double-vaccinated.” Dr. Salman Zarka, Coronavirus Czar
2/3 of Canadian voters, voted against him
Would we be not just as divided if the Conservatives had won?
Can someone wipe that freaking smirk off his face…….
How stupid. They voted for him and now they think he should resign?
He should not resign but he should not run in the next election. He wasted so much money that could have been used to resolve water access and other issues.
Why? because he is human with faults? do we look for a god to be our leader? Not I, I would rather a man who can learn and a person with a heart for my country. Who can quietly find a way to release 2 innocent men in China, someone who will not abandon me. What about you?
Thanks to Toronto area & down east. so sad
popular vote not for Trudeau.Canadians strongly decided.
brianlilley Narcissists don’t usually care about what the majority of Canadians say or want. Only have to look how he partnered with China on vaccines, Huawei and screwed 5 eyes
That smile says it all.

brianlilley The only poll that matters was on Sept 20th
Odd that the NP does not run one of these dubious polls for Jason Best Summer Ever K.
Bullshit
Name 5.
And repay the 600 million he owes the tax payers.
Is this reporting nowadays? He was just re-elected. …
Well it couldn’t be the majority of Canadians because he just won the election for another 4 year term😉
I don’t see too many lining up for his job.
You should be removed from media for absolute incompetence in journalism
Totally agree!
Canadian present situation of immigrations, native, aboriginal, Fist Nations, among major both parties, such Conservatives, Liberal have been influenced mentally for dividend the country, same in EU and unable get any solution for their unity, which tried since Albert Hitler
brianlilley Canadians had the chance to turf him out last week. They were unsuccessful. Try again in about two years.
National Post needs to shut down as it is no longer a newspaper. It is a conservative propaganda rag.
The National Post - not worth reading.
Who did you poll? The PPC? Just clickbait and ridiculous. Unfollowed and blocked.
So happy to not be part of your 'majority'.
Postmedia propaganda of the day as brought to you by Calgary Herald, Montreal Gazette, Ottawa Citizen, National Post etc... No one company should own 90% of Canada's papers, especially when they're 66% US owned. Time to break'em up & get foreign ownership out of Canada's media
brianlilley Correction: only conservative owned biased media want Trudeau to resign. The Canadian majority prefer to keep PMJT. CPC lost they need to get over it. All the privinces with the MOST covid cases and daily deaths are CPC/Conservative run! That’s not a coincidence. NeverVoteCPC
brianlilley is dividing the country, not Trudeau.
If you didn’t vote, you can’t complain.
Better the one you know, than the one you do not.
Not my Prime Minister. Canada is becoming the worlds laughing stock.
brianlilley '51 percent also say Erin O'Toole should step down' Huh, must have missed that in the title
Guess who the national Post supports? This is laughable.
The angry diluted comments in here are hilarious
Sounds good to me.
brianlilley Wait tell everyone has to pay the bill for his outrageous spending lol it’s going to be a great show watching the Panic of people that’s just barely getting by now as it is.
Take a rest National Post. As a newspaper you should be ashamed of your obvious bias!!! As a conservative spokesman do us all a favour and start acting like an objective media outlet.
Total nonsense. People are going nuts
Your paper isn't fit to line the bottom of my bird cage. Pure garbage. What about O'Toole and Singh? Perhaps their electoral failures are grounds for two leadership campaigns. Why not mention this? Do you not know that Trudeau won MORE seats this time than in 2019? cdnpoli
Just reading through this thread makes me want to throw up. Of course this country is divided. Anyone who says otherwise is dumb as a rock.
I just want a change. Anyone
Trudeau. . Bye bye
brianlilley Strongly agree
brianlilley But then why did they vote for the goof?
Nonsense. Canada needs all elected candidates to get to work. cdnpoli yow topoli vanpoli

The country deserves better. His concern is the Party & friends (Eg. SNC); not the Nation.
Then why vote for him?!?!?!
Exact same energy

Because leaders who have just won their 3rd straight election, at the will of Cdn voters, have so much reason to resign. I realize it's been quite a while since this happened for Conservatives so it's understandable you'd be unfamiliar with how winning works. IStandWithTrudeau
What a Conservative leaning trash newspaper! Guessing readership is down after another Conservative thrashing in a MAJORITY of the provinces and Territories. So much for all the money your paper spent trying to make O’Toole seem like the second coming! 🤪
Not surprising. A wolf in sheep’s clothing.
Yeah we should parachute Conrad Black as the next Messiah to save the Canadian conservatives world.
You know we just had an election right
I don't see any reason why he should. Harper had twice minority governments and he did not resign. I am pretty sure Trudeau will win majority next election in 2023
Talk about bullshit!!!!
Your guy lost. Get over it.
Strange timing for your post! TwoMichaels Elxn44 Thank you JustinTrudeau MarcGarneau Welcome home Michaek Kovrig and Michael Spavor! 🇨🇦 canpoli
but look at cute little face 🥺
Agreed
, voice of the trolls against Trudeau; come back in four years…maybe 🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣
and the sooner the better
suzannealma Proof that this federation is built on sand.
He thinks he's great. He has cost us a lot of money and divided the country and we saw right across Canada the hate people had for this man
More like National Post believe Trudeau should resign!
This is what hostile foreign propaganda looks like. The National Post should be banned for trash like this.
A democratic election says otherwise. Stop dividing the country!
Just stop it! is a foreign interest interfering
He should resign but this three time blackface embarrassment is to errogent to do such a noble and proper deed.
punditclass Absolutely ➡️Listen to his own words about how to win⬇️ ➡️Divisive behavior is as bad as Trump ➡️68.2% of canadavotes didn't want him ➡️Many PPL I have spoken to said they are disgraced by what Trudeau has done cdnpoli Toronto bcpoli quebec onpoli
Nothing a proportional voting system wouldn’t fix!
I think mail in votes should be counted the same time as the election, because counting ballots AFTER an election night doesn’t seem right at all
What utter nonsense.
Majority of Canadians say the national post is a right wing propaganda trash rag disguised as a news outlet.
ResignTrudeau
What a silly story. Do not insult the Canadian people. We just voted him in. Please don't become Fox news.
A man who did Black Face on multiple occasion is the leader of your Country. The fact that he is even PM goes to show how blatantly Racist Canada is.
anthonycookppc If this poll say he should resign by a majority, how did he win....
I'm sure he is sobbing in bed reading this.
Yet the greater TO area, a chunk of Quebec and the lower mainland of BC vote for him...especially given his ethics lacking track record, what does that say about those who blindly voted for them, sickening and pathetic TrudeauWorstPMEver Ontario Vancouver
National Post is having a slow news day for this kind of bullshit reporting - the man JUST WON the damn elections!! MOST CANADIANS HAVE SPOKEN! 🤦🏼♂️
What? Elections aren’t enough now?
Yes Trudeau has divided the country worse then even his father did and I am old enough to have seen both in power - it is not good for Canada!
How can a majority think that and he got reelected. Something definitely wrong with poll
National Post isn’t fit to line a bird cage with
Of course he should. JustinTrudeau is the prime minister of a few big cities and is hated by the rest of the country. I don’t want to have my countrymen turned against me and I don’t want to turn against them the way he wants it to be
National Post Headline: Trudeau to blame for the earth warming. Says study by National Post. Lol
What a dumb article! There was just an election.
Why would I believe you? It's not like you've been unbiased ever! Erin O'Toole is evil, we'd be much more divided under him 😠
If this were true then why elect Liberals to another minority government?
No, we don't Conrad.
He needs to go to jail.
Hey NP, your bias is showing. He just won an election! I am the majority and I am not calling for his resignation. We need a PM who is a science believer.
Did you even hear Mr. O’Toole’s “concession” speech? Very unifying indeed. Give it all a rest for a while NP and let the PM do the job that Canadians just elected him to do.
Laughable article as always
1979HAB Can’t stop. Won’t stop.
Trudeau is like “long haul covid” on the ppl of Canada We can’t seem to get rid of him and he causes several long lasting unpleasant symptoms Trudeaumustgo Trudeau
Lol just like any other countries are divided over politics
Wut
Please have some integrity. This is such BS.
Trudeau was the best of all those candidates. Non of the other candidates had it in them to do a better job.
“A vast majority” Your political leaning is showing, stop polling your conservative friends and report the news in an unbiased manner using journalistic ethics - are you trying to curry favour with Conrad Black the republican
Why would a Prime Minister who was just re-elected with a strong minority resign? May the Conservatives are TERRIFIED of facing him in another election!
“Gerald Butts, former principal secretary to Trudeau, after the election result, which praised the “super geniuses” within the Liberal party who managed to squeeze more seats out of fewer overall votes.” Trudeau’s Liberals are masters of public manipulation
Bullshit.
Three straight election wins! Love him or hate him, the guy's a winner.
Majority didn’t vote for him, but that’s how Canada’s crappy systems works.
Well let me get this straight they just had an election and voted for him and now they’re calling for him to resign. So what did they vote for him? Seems to me that would’ve been the time to do something about it.
It sounds like can’t handle the results of the election. Maybe they are trying to help O’Toole keep his job.
Maybe coming from pathetic AB and Sask…
LOL 🤣
If majority of Canadians dislike him why did the idiots vote for him
The country is divided by people who think its ok to still vote for a unethical priminister...
Utter nonsense. Manufactured facts from the National Rag.
The country seems the most divided since the national unity debates in the 90's. Mr Trudeau exploited this in his bid for power. He's to blame for the increased regional tensions. If the Liberal Party is truly national as they claim, govern for the entire country,for once.
Well they shouldn’t have voted for him then…
Wtf headline? If this was true, he’d lost. Not a fan but this is BS
* Majority based on sample poll of 100 Conservative voters.
That divided country you claim: Trudeau/Liberals won the most seats in both territories and 8 out of 10 provinces. And only short 11 seats from a majority Gov. The country has its differences but it is NOT divided.
Hey! Where do you get your news from?!?!?’ Seriously I need to unfollow you for keep spreading wrong information
Meh... The party system is the problem, Freeland isnext and she thought Doug Ford was charming... So zero sense out the gate and a hardcore neoliberal to boot.
Hahaha Liberals 159 seats
TrudeauMustGoNow
Yup I don't see him taking a walk in the snow.
