Feelings about the outcome of the federal election among Canadians 2021
On August 15, 2021, Justin Trudeau, then leader of a minority Liberal government, announced the launch of an electoral campaign for a federal election scheduled for September 20. While one of the explanations for this early election was the desire of the Prime Minister, then in a strong position in public opinion, to regain his 2015 majority, the election results show that the Canadian political map has remained relatively unchanged compared to the 2019 election. However, it appears that more than half of Canadians surveyed following the announcement of these results, at 57 percent, were satisfied or indifferent with the outcome. By contrast, a small proportion of the population were angry with the results.
