Contributing sentiments towards policy:
61% : Like Trump to the south, Poilievre believes energy -- both renewable and fossil fuels -- can create jobs and rescue the economy.60% : He is fond of pithy pledges to "axe the tax" -- or ditch a controversial carbon levy -- and "jail, not bail" -- imposing tougher sentences for criminals.
50% : As a 20-year-old in 1999, he won a $10,000 prize for an essay on the topic of "As Prime Minister I would . . . " in which he warned that "Canadian political institutions have caused our democracy to wither", and argued for personal freedoms and wholesale tax reform.
48% : Like Trump, Poilievre has embraced Conservative male podcasters, including Ben Shapiro and Jordan Peterson, who amplify his "common sense" message to millions of listeners around the world. X owner and billionaire Elon Musk, who repeatedly mocks Trudeau, regularly tweets his support for Poilievre, while Joe Rogan, the world's most popular podcast host, said last year the opposition leader "makes so much more sense".
45% : And while Poilievre is ahead in the polls and is predicted to be the winner in the next election, he does not inspire the same enthusiasm as Trump.
35% : He has also distanced himself from Trump since the president-elect said the US should annex Canada.
31% : Trump should approve the controversial Keystone XL, now mothballed, that could pump nearly 800,000 barrels of oil a day from Alberta's oil sands region, he said. Canadians' frustration with the Trudeau government over their stagnating economy has offered a rich seam to exploit.
