Canada's main opposition party remains at the top of the polls, but the race has become more competitive following Prime Minister Trudeau's announcement of his resignation.
Although voters are uncertain about who will replace Trudeau as the next leader of the Liberal Party, the party has gained some support, according to a recent Ipsos Research survey.
However, Pierre Poilievre's Conservative Party still holds a significant lead in national polls, with Poilievre's party set to receive 41 percent of the vote if the election were held tomorrow, according to Ipsos.
This is 13 percentage points more than the ruling Liberal Party's 28 percent support, but the Liberals have seen an 8 percentage point increase in support compared to an Ipsos survey conducted in early January. The main reason for this shift is the Conservative Party's performance during this period. In the latest Ipsos survey, Jagmeet Singh and the New Democrats are in third place, with 16 percent support.
