Do you have a link to that? Is it a different poll than the Nanos one? On their front page they're quoting the Nanos poll that puts the Liberals in minority territory.

I know G&M does a poll with Leger too, is there a recent one?

That doesn't make sense, in the 'first past the post' part they have the Bloc sitting at 12 seats.

They just said they didn't know it was a polling station. It's a community center with business as usual weekend activities. My advance polling station is the public library and community center, of course there are going to be tons of people around.
