Ford Government Rebound
The findings of a survey released today by Maru Public Opinion conducted for TVO’s #onpoli podcast shows that Ontario Premier Doug Ford and his government has rebounded in approval ratings that had tumbled between mid-March and mid-April after it was assailed from all sides because of a series of decisions, missteps, and mixed messaging. It would appear that both a much more focused communications strategy and a lower profile use of the premier himself for media availability and public engagement has helped resuscitate the governments fortunes as it departs the legislature for a summer break.
