A new poll by Nanos Research shows Ontario PC Leader Doug Ford's lead over the Liberals shrinking to 13 points from 16 at the start of the campaign. While the PCs remain the frontrunners with 44% support, the Liberals have gained ground with 31%. The survey also reveals a tight race in Toronto between the PCs and Liberals, with Ford still favored as preferred premier.
A composite image made from four file photographs show, from left to right, Leader of the Ontario NDP Marit Stiles in Toronto, Saturday, Feb. 1, 2025; Ontario Progressive Conservative Party Leader Doug Ford in Pickering, Ont., Wednesday, Feb. 5, 2025; Ontario Liberal Party Leader Bonnie Crombie in Ottawa, Sunday, Feb. 2, 2025; and Ontario Green Party Leader Mike Schreiner in Kitchener, Ont., Monday, Feb. 3, 2025.
The survey, released Monday, found that the PCs now enjoy about 44 per cent support from decided voters, compared to 31 per cent for the Liberals, 19 per cent for the NDP, and four per cent for the Greens. “The political landscape in Toronto remains fiercely competitive between the Progressive Conservatives and Liberals, while Ford maintains a stronger foothold outside Toronto.”
In the Greater Toronto Area, 48 per cent of decided respondents said they would vote for the PCs, about 10 percentage points higher than the number of respondents who said they support the Liberals, according to the survey.
