WINNIPEG — Manitoba Premier Greg Selinger remains the least popular premier in Canada, according to a new online survey by the Angus Reid Institute.
Selinger’s approval rating comes in at 23 percent, which is up from 17 percent in a similar survey released in December.
Premier Brad Wall of Saskatchewan remains the country’s most popular with a 61 percent approval rating.
Newly-elected Alberta Premier Rachel Notley came in at 53 percent as the second most popular in the survey.
The Angus Reid Institute analyzed the results of an online survey of 6291 Canadian adults in a randomized and representative sample of Angus Reid Forum panelists between May 26 and June 7, 2015. A probability sample of this size carries a margin of error of +/- 1.2%, 19 times out of 20.
