If you take a look at 338canada.com, you will see one poll (1000 people surveyed) with the Liberals at a two point lead. Likely if you take out the Toronto area polled, the Tories are still that good bit ahead and other polls conducted at about the same time still show a moderate to strong Conservative lead.
Also, if the Liberal brand really recovered because of Trump (not to discount that idea completely), Ontario Liberal leader Bonnie Crombie would have won her seat and made further gains against Doug Ford.
They have no idea they are being played with 4D chess.
Ford came out as more anti-Trump than the Liberals. He is on TV constantly attacking President Trump and the US. Right now, hating on the US is a big selling point to the poofers in Canada.
