The change is small but the trend is helpful:
The lead enjoyed by the Conservative Party over the Liberals in a new poll of voting intentions narrowed slightly last week, although the Tories still maintained a substantial advantage.
According to the latest EKOS poll released exclusively to the CBC, the Conservatives had the support of 38.3 per cent of respondents, down from 40.7 per cent last week.
Liberal support rose to 27.1 per cent from 25.5 per cent.
The NDP rose 0.2 percentage points to 14.5 per cent, while Green Party support grew half a percentage point to 11 per cent.
Support for the Bloc Québécois slipped by 0.1 percentage points to nine per cent.

They only look good because the last numbers looked so gawd awful. Things are terrible, very terrible.
Wait a week. Bad press always takes two weeks to really sink in. The Tories are set for a drop.

Sure...
How's that koolaid® drinking going?
"The change is small but the trend is helpful"
Are you kidding me. A trend is when you have a series of polls going the same direction. Not one poll that has the Conservatives 2.4% difference and the Liberals 1.6% difference. Gimme a break please.

It looks like there is a minor trend of a slight rebound for the Liberals. But there is a far larger trend of the Conservatives being significantly ahead of the Liberals but not quite at majority government levels. Ignatieff has not helped the Liberal cause at all, he has further damaged it.
What about the nanos poll? They have the Tories increasing their lead?
