Canadians' concern for Healthcare may result in more votes for the NDP

Government ethics and accountability among top issues in campaign, says Forum Research poll | The Hill Times - Canada's Politics and Government Newsweekly
The NDP are the champions of our Healthcare system. They brought it in and they continue to fight to keep it and to improve it.
The Conservatives want to get rid of it, and the Liberals have crippled it in the past with cuts to transfer payments.
With people ranking keeping Healthcare and keeping it public as high on their list of priorities this election, it is no wonder the NDP are doing so well in the polls.

Of the voters who ranked health care as the most important issue, 87 per cent of the survey respondents said they were in favour of supporting medicare rather than having more privatization of medical care and services.
