The Premier's comments yesterday to the media may have revealed poll results we have not seen.
While answering the question posed by CBC's David Cochrane - as to why she thought the polls were down for the PC's - Dunderdale referred to what appeared to be negative issues.
Dunderdale listed the fisheries closures, search and rescue, federal cuts, and MUSKRAT FALLS.
The Premier also mentioned that they won the biggest poll - the election last fall.
Then the Premier added that tough decisions or things not going great are bound to cause poll fluctuation but that she did not govern by polls.
Which is it I wonder?
Then as if explaining how or why Muskrat might be negative - Dunderdale claimed there was a lot of "propaganda" around on the project.
The Premier seemed more than certain that the Emera/Nalcor proposed project on Muskrat was currently suffering a negative reaction from the public.
Where are the polls on this project?
There was no problem with polls during the election - including these "freebie" polls by MQO spouting very disastrous numbers for the opposition parties.
Has the government done polling on Muskrat? What do you think?
Then the woman who had no problem with the polling numbers during the election - threw in a hint - that perhaps this time - or any time when the PC's are losing ground - the polls may be wrong.
She asked reporters to look at the Alison Redford scenario in Alberta where the polls said she should be in Opposition - yet she is now the Premier.
Considering the dollars needed to do Muskrat between 6 and 8 billion - do you believe there have not been polls done?
Where are the polls on this project?
