Trudeau's negatives have also skyrocketed, now at 45/44 approval. Elections aren't won with prayers and all that.

In other news, Poilievre will support some Senate FEA amendments, so looks like it'll still pass on time.

Some more FEA numbers: 87% think ID should be presented to vote, 70% support eliminating vouching, 52% don't care if it makes voting difficult for some. All # from CTV's Richard Madan.

Supremes rule as expected on the Senate: 7/50 for elections and term limits, unanimity for abolition, feds can abolish QC property requirement without consulting Assnat.

Iggy's seat was not marginal in 2006. Clark inherited her predecessor's seat, Marois is from Quebec City, Couillard wanted to run where he lives. All the federal leaders are fine.

Hah: PKP only boosts the PQ by 2 in a hypothetical ballot test, same as Hivon. Duceppe boosts them by 4.

Imagine the reaction if Grits are stuck in third next year. Grin On a related note, do the exit surveys ever cover ROC Francophones?

Tensions are rising between the government and Supreme Court, but little anyone can do since the Constitution's the ultimate source.

More on Harper-McLachlin. Buried lede: apparently use of the notwithstanding clause is  being "not seriously" discussed.
