Welcome to your Polling Canada model update for July 18, 2026!

This past week saw two new polls, the weekly Nanos and Liaison trackers.

Liaison has the Liberals at 41% (-2 compared to July 4), with the Conservatives at 35% (+1), the NDP at 14% (-), and the Bloc at 6% (-). The Greens were stable at 2% (-), while the PPC remained at 1% (-).

Nanos has the Liberals at 43% (+2 compared to July 3), the Conservatives at 31% (-1), the NDP at 15% (-), and the Bloc at 6% (-). The Greens remained at 4% (-), while the PPC stayed at 1% (-).



Overall, the situation remains the same, with the national average showing a Liberal lead of nine points.

At the regional level, the Liberals were up in Atlantic Canada (+2 compared to last week), Quebec (+2), and Ontario (+1), while their lead narrowed in British Columbia (-3).

The Conservatives saw their lead in Alberta increase slightly (+1), while remaining unchanged in Saskatchewan/Manitoba.

Now let’s take a brief look at the rest of the numbers!
