Short Lived Budget Bloom Wilts For Harper Tories

Volatile Electoral Landscape Makes Majority Tenuous – Ontario, BC Support Slips, Post-Election Quebec Gives No Ground For Conservatives

Toronto, ON, April 3, 2007 – The post-budget bounce in Tory support has proved to be temporary according to the latest poll conducted by Ipsos Reid for Canwest and Global TV.

The survey shows finds that 36% of Canadians would support the Conservatives if a federal election were held today – a 4-point decline from the magical 40% threshold the Conservatives garnered last week in the immediate aftermath of the release of the federal budget. The 36% level of support returns the Conservatives to the same level of support they earned during the election in 2006.

The budget was 10% substance and 90% pre-election aroma....

Canadians are smarter than Harper gives them credit

Media likely want Harper to take a majority?
