Conservatives gain largest lead over Liberals after Trudeau's resignation

Following Justin Trudeau's resignation as Liberal Party leader, a new poll shows the Conservatives with their largest lead over the Liberals to date. This marks a significant shift in the political landscape. The poll is part of an ongoing collaboration between Abacus Data and the Toronto Star, aimed at gauging Canadian voter sentiment. It reflects changing dynamics in the wake of Trudeau's announcement. While the poll's methodology involves online opt-in panels, it is considered a standard approach in the industry. The results indicate a notable change in voter preferences since Trudeau's departure.
