Gregg:
Liberals............................. 35%
Conservatives................... 29%
New Democratic Party...... 17%
Bloc quebecois.................. 14%
Green Party ........................ 5%

* Excellent! Good on Gregg for including all the parties with sufficient percentages to become significant for gaining at least one seat in the House of Commons were there a system of Proportional Representation in effect, and true pluralism in the Canadian Federal electoral system. Other kinds of poll reporting numb the electoral by screening out in advance what the true interest in political parties actually is, as expressed in national percentages [comment by refWrite].

======================================

November 26

Ipsos:
Liberals............................. 34%
Conservatives................... 30%
New Democratic Party...... 16%
Bloc quebecois.................. 15%
Green Party ........................ 5%

* Excellent! Again, this particular Ipsos poll does include the BQ and the Greens. But Ipsos is inconsistent, as other polls it has taken erase the last two parties from the record of poll results. Again, this numbs the electoral and prejudices them against comparing the gerrymandered system we now have, with the actually existent results which would be significant for the assignment of seats in the lower chamber of Parliament, under PropRep [comment by refWrite] .

----------------------------

Robbins:
Liberals............................. 32%
Conservatives.................... 32%
New Democratic Party....... 22%

*Robbins reports only 86% of the voters choices. This is a falsification. [comment by refWrite]

----------------------------

Ekos:
Liberals............................. 38.7%
Conservatives................... 29.4%
New Democratic Party...... 16.9%
Bloc quebecois.................. 10.6%
Green Party........................ 3.9%

* Again, excellent for including all significant parties - all of which should receive seat/s in the Commons! [comment by refWrite]

========================================

November 18

Bourque barometer: Should Tories chop GST by 80% ?
Yes 68%
No 28%
Dunno 4%

* I seem to have seen a report somewhere today that Stephen Harper's Tories will reduce the GST by 5% - an incremental approach superiour to the approach presupposed in Bourque's question [comment by refWrite].

=======================================

November 15-16

SES:
Liberals............................ 34%
Conservatives................... 28%
New Democratic Pary....... 20%

* Same refWrite objection to the distortion and falsification in narrowing reporting to three parties only [comment by refWrite] .

----------------------------

Pollara:
Liberals........................... 36%
Conservatives................. 28%
New Democratic Party.... 20%
Bloc quebecois................ 11%

* Not good enuff, tho the BQ is included, the Green Party is not. Same refWrite objection to the distortion and falsification in narrowing reporting to the four parties already represented in the House of Commons only - excluding the new Party that would receive at least one seat were PropRep instituted [comment by refWrite].

--------------------------

Decima:
Liberals........................... 33%
Conservatives................. 26%
New Democratic Party.... 22%
Bloc quebecois................ 13%

* Again, not good enuff because it distorts the PropRep significance of the poll results, by leaving out the Green Party results [comment by refWrite].

Confirmation of judges, especially to the Supreme Court; Proportional Representation in all elections to civic office in Canada; election of Senators by provinical electorates - these issues pertaining to the political order should all be active elements of the Winter 2005 election campaign for Members of the House of Commons of the Canadian Parliament. - Politicarp
