Scott Moe’s approval rating falls to 45% ahead of Saskatchewan election

With the Saskatchewan provincial election right around the corner, Premier Scott Moe’s approval rate is on the decline.

Nearly 4,000 Canadians were polled between Sept. 12th and 18th about their views of provincial premiers.

Forty-five per cent of those polled said they approved of Moe, the leader of the Saskatchewan Party, down from 49 per cent in June.

The polling industry’s professional body, the Canadian Research Insights Council, said online surveys cannot be assigned a margin of error because they do not randomly sample the population.
