This pod is a real treat for all you data nerds. With us today is pollster, data scientist, former Herle protégé and proud daughter of Humboldt, Saskatchewan … Kyla Ronellenfitsch!
I mean, what can I tell you about Kyla the overachiever? She started her career with me at the Gandalf Group – I think she was about 11 years old at the time – and ended up leading the research for the Ontario Liberal Party during the 2018 election. Tough gig, that one. Kyla’s been dividing her time between Canada and the U.S, for the past few years. In 2021, she founded her own full-service polling firm, Relay Strategies, based in Ottawa. She also consults with Change Research out of San Francisco, on thought leadership and product development. Kyla holds a Master of Science in Analytics from the University of Chicago, and Master of Political Management from Carleton. And she’s the first alumnus of that latter program to return as an instructor.
Today we’ll be taking a data deep dive into a fresh qual and quant study from Kyla. She’s explored attitudes about Trudeau as Prime Minister. Just exactly how bad is it out there for him? What do people think of Poilievre? What difference might a change in Liberal leadership make and what would people be looking for in any new Liberal leader?
