3. Mood of the country has stabilized but is still lower than at any point since Spring 2021. All this was done before today's events in Ukraine.

6. PM Trudeau's favourables steady but still higher than at any point since the pandemic started. Have to go back to the SNC Lavalin scandal to see his negatives this high.

7. CPC Leader Candice Bergen has seen a change in her favorables. Negatives up 4, positives up 3. Convoy/occupation put her in the spotlight.

8. NDP Leader Singh's positives continue to drop slowly. Under 40% for the first time since August 2021. Negatives up slightly over the past few weeks.

All in all, the events have the past few weeks have hurt impressions of the government and PM but have also done little to improve the standing of the main opposition parties.

Accessible voter pools for LPC, NDP, and CPC are fairly consistent with what we found in November.
