The Liberals are no longer climbing on the Nanos Party Power Index, but the party score remains high, the latest tracking by Nanos Research shows.

The party was been steadily trending upwards recently, hitting record highs for the past two weeks.

But, while the Liberals' latest score remains high, it hasn't gone up from last week.

In the most recent numbers, which are based on tracking ending on Nov. 20 and released on Nov. 25:

  • The Liberals scored 68.3 out of a possible 100 points. Last week the party scored 68.6 points
  • The NDP scored 47.3 points. Last week the party scored 47.8 points.
  • The Conservatives scored 45.1 points. Last week the party scored 44.9 points.
  • The Green Party scored 32.9 points. Last week the party scored 31.6 points.
  • In Quebec, the Bloc Quebecois scored 25.2 points. Last week the party scored 25.3 points.

The Nanos Party Power Index measures and tracks the federal parties' brand strength and assigns each party a score from 1 to 100. A score of 0 means the party has no brand strength while a score of 100 means the party has maximum brand strength.

The final score is based on responses to four questions:

  • A ballot measure question that asks respondents to name their first and second vote preferences
  • A question on whether the respondent would consider voting for a party
  • A question that asks respondents to rank which federal party leader would be their preferred prime minister and which leader would be their second choice
  • A leadership question on whether respondents believe each party leader has the qualities of a good leader

Tracking methodology

A national dual-frame (land and cell) random telephone survey is conducted weekly by Nanos Research using live agents.

The weekly tracking figures are based on a four-week rolling sample composed of 1,000 interviews. To update the tracking, a new week of 250 interviews is added and the oldest week dropped. The margin of error for a survey of 1,000 respondents is ±3.1 percentage points, 19 times out of 20.
