Don't know about Canada, but the pollsters here, or most of them, are participants, not just observers. They create the results they want by the questions they ask, the phrasing, and by the sampling pool. Liberals are over-sampled, for instance. Also, I can think of at least one recent example where the customer, one of the MSM cabal, didn't like the result, so buried the whole shebang.
Poll results are used to create false impressions in order to discourage the other side (us), and change our opinions using the natural human trait of wanting to fit in with the majority. That trait also affects the sampled's answers because those who hold opinions they feel may be seen as somehow wrong or unpopular may not answer honestly, even to a stranger like a pollster.
A perfect illustration of the uselessness of polls are the ones taken before our last general election in 2016. Only one major poll showed Trump even close to winning.
I really hope Canadians can pull some of their chesnuts out of the fire next time. Hate to see you go further down the Eurotopia road.
