Don't you worry. The conservatives will win. If not, the country of canada is finished and even though the people enjoy shaking their fists at Trump, they now this, come election day.

Only a month ago, electoral projections were showing the Conservatives likely to win a historic landslide with the Bloc Québécois in opposition and the Liberal Party bumped to a distant fourth place.

These are still comparatively dismal numbers for the Liberals, but it was as recently as Dec. 30 that an Angus Reid Institute poll pegged the Liberals with a rock-bottom 16 per cent — the lowest result for the Liberals in the entire history of Canadian polling.

By contrast, a Feb. 6 poll by Pallas Data put the Liberals at 33.7 per cent against 39.6 per cent for the Conservatives. When projected out by election modeller Raymond Liu, the Pallas numbers still yielded a Conservative majority of 173 seats, but with vast sections of Greater Toronto and Atlantic Canada still in Liberal hands.
