David Eby has to introduce himself to voters, to boost himself as the brand of the governing party.
David Eby has spent his early days as premier blitzing the electorate with a series of announcements designed to boost flagging public confidence in the New Democrat administration’s handling of big issues like crime, health care and affordability.There’s only really one way to check, absent calling an early election: Public opinion polling.
It puts Eby at the middle of the pack of Canadian premiers, and only slightly ahead of Alberta’s controversial new premier Danielle Smith.Polls are an inexact measurement, at best. They have major limitations . Sometimes they are flat-out wrong compared to election results. But they remain the best, and only, tool for an incumbent government to gauge reaction to its policies and politicians in near real-time.
So far, that’s manifested itself in a series of carefully staged photo ops, including last week when media were invited to watch Eby and his wife Cailey take their two kids skating at Robson Square in Vancouver. There will even be some who view Eby as using his family as a prop. And before New Democrats get too sanctimonious about that particular argument, they should remember that many NDPers accused former premier Christy Clark of doing just that a decade ago when she chose, as a single mother, to bring her young teenage son Hamish to her events.He has to introduce himself to voters, to boost himself as the brand of the governing party.
