Canadians have more trust in Carney than they did in Trudeau: poll
- A recent annual poll conducted by The Logit Group in May 2025 found that 52% of Canadians expressed trust in Prime Minister Mark Carney, a figure notably higher than the trust levels recorded for former Prime Minister Justin Trudeau both at the start of his term and near its conclusion.
- This poll followed prior measurements showing Trudeau's trust at 26% in January 2025 and 46% in 2016, reflecting a significant decline compared to Carney's current standing.
- The survey was conducted online by the Logit Group from May 5 to 14, polling 1,250 Canadians as part of an annual tracking effort by Proof Strategies over the last decade.
- Support for Pierre Poilievre, leader of the Conservative Party, experienced a minor decrease from 40% in January to 38% in May, with analysts suggesting his backing has remained largely unchanged since the recent election.
- These results suggest Canadians currently place more confidence in Carney's leadership than in Trudeau's past tenure, indicating a shift in political trust patterns ahead of the next elections.
