A pre-debate state of the race

Front Burner

About this episode

With just over a week until election day, Canada's main party leaders go head to head tonight in the only English language debate. 


So, where does the campaign stand? Is anything shifting? How do people feel about the leaders at the moment? Where are parties drawing their biggest support and losses from? 


David Coletto, the CEO of the polling firm Abacus Data, joins the show today to tell us what the latest polls are saying.


He will rejoin the show as just one of several special guests on our election night livestream, Monday, April 28. Watch it on the CBC News YouTube channel and CBC News on TikTok.
