Not a huge deal but @kylejhutton is absolutely right on daily polling needing at least some smoothing to be of any value. Campaigns move opinion but not on a day to day basis, especially over the weekend without any announcements. It is just expected MoE movement

“The election is no longer about Trudeau, it’s no longer about a carbon tax. It is about a much more existential question, about what’s best for Canada and who is best to do that,” Turnbull said. “That could split all kinds of ways.

I've read Carney has poor french skills so if this does show him with a large lead in Quebec it would pretty well neutralize that issue. Surely Quebec heard the same thing and yet
Tweet from @pallasdata also specifically calls out Quebec 👀

🚨The @pallasdata poll will be out later today, with just the federal voting intentions. We also tested ballot scenarios with @MarkJCarney, @cafreeland, and @karinagould as Liberal leaders. The results are mindblowing. Two pollsters are getting confirmed...

@Koniq93 Nowhere near the number reported in the tweet. Canadian universities do win some research grants but it is not even in the hundreds of millions. Tobi is engaging with terrible sources and instead of doing any research takes a knee jerk position
A key member of the convoy that occupied Ottawa, Tom Quiggin, claims @WesternU received $506 million from the US Agency for International Development. My search of data turned up a single $50,210 award. Western's annual budget is $896 million 1/2

@SuzyQue64568715 @InvestwithHarvy @PythiaR A quote tweet would not have given the full context (people barely click through). If @PythiaR has any problems happy to take down tweet. Just added a follow up tweet in thread telling me to follow him

@Greekphysique86 You are correct, the numbers are completely bogus. Why is Tobi engaging with such poor sources in the first place?

@DarenCotter The point of the tweet which you are completely missing is people show you their motivations through their actions. Nobody can read another's mind only judge what they actually do. I am judging Tobi on weeks worth of actions which this is a culmination of
