More Canadians say they prefer the Conservative Party than the Liberal Party in a recent Angus Reid poll. The Conservatives are 14 percentage points ahead of the Liberals in the survey.

The Tories led in all regions outside of Quebec, where 30 percent chose the Bloc Québécois, 29 percent supported the Liberals and 23 percent said they would vote for Pierre Poliev's Conservatives. Forty-one percent of women over the age of 54 supported Prime Minister Justin Trudeau's party, while 28 percent supported the Conservatives.

2 in 5 voters said they would support whichever party considered the issue of a carbon tax at the next federal election. The online survey was conducted by the Angus Reid Institute between November 10 and 14. 2,512 adult Canadians participated.
