Tory Support Slides In Quebec and Ontario -- New Polling

A week is a long time in politics.

Tory support has plunged in Quebec and the Liberals have moved into second spot behind the Bloc, with 28 per cent. The Tories, solidly in second place in the province since the campaign opened, have slipped to 19 per cent, with the NDP at 12 and the Greens at 8 per cent.

In Ontario, there has been a dramatic swing, with the Liberals regaining the lead at 34 per cent and the Conservatives falling to 26 per cent, just in front of the NDP at 24. The Greens have 15 per cent.

The electorate is volatile but I suspect a Conservative majority is no longer plausible.
