If the election were tomorrow, the poll suggests Justin Trudeau’s Liberal party would receive 34 per cent of the decided vote, with Stephen Harper’s Conservatives earning 33 per cent. The one-point lead is a statistical tie, according to Ipsos Reid.
“What this poll shows is the Liberals and the Conservatives are really the two main parties Canadians are choosing from; the NDP not so much anymore,” said Ipsos Reid spokesperson John Wright.
