Prime Minister Justin Trudeau’s cabinet recently concluded its annual retreat in Halifax, where discussions focused on potential policy changes in areas such as trade, immigration, and Canada-U.S. relations. The retreat was a crucial opportunity for the Liberal government to regroup and strategize ahead of the upcoming federal election.
However, a new poll has shown that the Liberals are trailing significantly behind Pierre Poilievre’s Conservative party. This setback has added extra pressure on Trudeau’s government to course correct and regain lost ground before the election next year.
Mackenzie Gray’s reporting sheds light on the challenges faced by the Liberal party as they strive to get back on track and regain public support. The disparity in the polls serves as a wake-up call for the government, prompting them to reassess their policies and communication strategies in order to win over voters.
As the election draws nearer, the Liberals are facing an uphill battle to close the gap with the Conservatives and secure another term in office. The outcome of the retreat in Halifax will be crucial in determining the party’s trajectory moving forward and their chances of success in the upcoming election.

Trudeau should be tried for treason
What we Canadians want are lesser taxes, millions of new homes (houses not apartments), less immigration and only allow them in when we have the infrastructure and the homes that can support them.
It's really not much of a ask but all we get is more tax, over a million immigrants in here with no houses being built. Don't even get me started with the sad state our military is in. We need more ships, aircraft, guns, ammo, artillery, tanks, logistics and much more but all our military gets are millions in spending cuts and tampons in male restrooms. Sure, we are getting 15 new River Class "destroyers" but we they are going to replace the Halifax Class Frigates. I use destroyers loosely because they are type 26 frigates. Then, when Trudeau was mocked at a NATO summit, he magically said we are getting new conventional deep water submarines…how? Not with more cuts! Why can we get some nuclear submarines from the states? They still got some Los Angeles Class subs with lots of life in them and they can unlock more capabilities like the mark 48 ADCAP. We can finally operate in the Arctic and conventional diesel electric subs are not gonna cut it cuz they need to stay out there for weeks without refueling.
God this government makes me mad…
It’s embarrassing when liberals get more conservative thinking that will make people vote for them
chances are they are planning on how to corrupt the next election. God help us if it's in a year…it'll give them and the NDP enough time to work some shenanigans out, which will mean the end of Canada as we know it…God help us all.
The lead is closing now (slowly) Libs rising as CPC are falling. with more than a year to go, there is no reason to believe the trend won't continue. Housing is being dealt with. Immigration and work visas just got reduced. inflation is dropping, gas prices dropping, etc. like 400 days remain!
As soon as a liberal cabinet minister approaches a microphone i mute the source. I’m beyond done with this incompetent moronic government.
They aren't concerned because they KNOW they will be gone.
The blue wave is coming and I can't wait!
God bless Canada.
A raging narcissist as Canada's PM has to come to an end.
JT needs to go for a fresh mandate!
Poilievre offers nothing good because he can't even be an effective opposition leader. Nobody knows where he stands on almost everything. Hopefully no party gets a majority in the next election.
Trudeau needs to be investigated and held accountable.
The Liberals need a new candidate. We CAN'T elect Poilievre. HE'S A FLAKE!
All the Liberals are good at, stealing the Conservatives ideas and calling them their own…
We need an election sooner rather than later…
Justin Trudeau and his Liberals need to go…
As Canadians, because of the Liberals, we pay more for everything, why should we put up with US Tariffs yet again.
Let's not forget at one time, we sold energy to the United States and bought it back at a higher rate.
If anything we need to put Tariffs on the US.
But PP is a Russian asset.
Well they wrecked Canada…..and they want to keep up the good work. Some democracy Canada has become eh? 15 moths to an election, wonder what will be left?
Liberals can't envision what people want because they are constrained by their ideology. They don't even see this and so believe that they are doing the right thing and simply have a communications problem.
Your gonna become a non party like Kathleen wynne in Toronto
Looks like a tough problem for Liberals. There aren't any obvious solutions for the polls to change. But it seems that the Liberals believe that they can fitgure out a way to win – because fundamentally they say that they have done a good job for Canadians.
Never ever would i ever vote liberal after this. Or NDP after tbe coalition.
There is a plot to fraudulently steal the next election with the Block and NPD with a coalition.
I'll never vote Liberal/NDP for the remainder of my life.
These people are destroying both Canada and the Liberal party itself, incompetency on full display…
The liberals are done their tyranny brought them to where they are today and they turn around and ask whats bothering Canadians lol what a joke Pierre for pm!!!!!!!!
Everyone knows we need change.
Trudeau is clueless and his Cabinet equally or more so. Call Elections, Turndeau!
Tent cities and food banks are a common scene after 9 years of trudeau liberals, can your family survive 4 more years of liberalism
If PP gets in Canada, we will have our version of Trump 😢
Cancel carbon tax or face the wrath of voters.
I know this sounds hyperbolic but my life has become noticeably more difficult since the liberals have held power. Every policy they push is the opposite of what I would want.
The liberals keep “listening & learning” instead of actually doing
When a liberal MP has to ask…."what is the change Canadians are looking for?" that is next level out of touch. Canadians want a ne government!!!
Im no cheerleader for Trudeau but Conservatives/Pierre Poilievre are worse. They push the same hateful, ignorant delusional ideology as MAGA. That garbage doesn't belong in Canada.
Poilievre would cost Canadians alot more than the carbon tax. He has no interest in helping improve the lives of average Canadians or solving anything. Poilievre hates unions yet claims to be for the working class. Hypocracy
Pierre Poilievre follows in a long standing right-wing tradition of intentionally appealing to the masses while actively working against them.
You don't need qualifications to be in government anymore
Another useless and costly attempt at propaganda…..another holiday for Justin, on the east coast this time.
Get him out!
While Trudeau is out there virtue posturing at Pride, Pollieve is talking about things people care about. You don’t win elections pandering to special interest groups.
Since Trudeau, we have had a crashing health care system, highest unemployment while the government is paying incentives to companies to hire new immigrants.
THE LIBERALS STOLEN ELECTION RUN IS ENDING .
71 STOLEN ELECTIONS AROUND THE GLOBE – ARE GOING TO BE EXPOSED .
Oh look it’s Mary Ng the minister who paid her friend 2500/hr to give Covid seminars and never paid back the tax payer. When asked if she would step down she just said no.
So many expensive retreats where nothing is accomplished. A completely useless group of politicians!! Election Now!! Canadians Hate this corrupt government!!
What Canadians need is more immigrants, higher taxes and less free speech. Voting Liberal
Trudo‘s a punk anybody that believes in him is out of touch.
