Do Canadians support the Carney-Smith pipeline deal?

In this episode of Hub Politics, host Sean Speer is joined by Amanda Galbraith, co-founder and president of Oyster Group, and David Coletto, founder and CEO of Abacus Data, to discuss new polling from Abacus Data that shows the pipeline agreement between Prime Minister Mark Carney and Alberta Premier Danielle Smith is popular with Canadians, particularly among self-identified Conservatives.

They explore the possible political risks to the memorandum of understanding, Pierre Poilievre and the federal Conservatives' challenging position, and how public opinion may shift as the project unfolds. Their conversation then turned to conservative coalition fractures in the U.K. and British Columbia and questions of how conservative priorities can balance populist energy with broader electoral appeal.
