The growing support for the Conservatives in the polls comes at the same time as Trudeau has been plagued by angry protestors at nearly every campaign stop. On Friday, his campaign stop in Bolton, ON, had to be cancelled due to safety concerns. Trudeau said that he had never seen such anger on the campaign trail before.
Trudeau’s campaign event on Sunday, August 29, in Cambridge was greeted by more than 100 angry protestors. Their main source of anger was the Liberal government’s push for mandatory vaccines and vaccine passports.
