The release from Clean Prosperity cites a poll it commissioned from the Policy, Elections and Representation Lab at the University of Toronto, conducted October 22-23 with 1,100 Canadians. “Voters who turned away from the federal Conservatives on Monday were overwhelmingly concerned about climate change,” the organization concludes. “Of voters who did not vote for Andrew Scheer’s Conservatives, 20% said they would consider voting Conservative—but 77% also said climate change was among their top issues. Those same voters were unimpressed with the Conservative plan for climate change, giving it an average rating of D.”

The conclusion: “Conservatives missed out on thousands of potential votes across the country thanks to a weak climate plan.”
