Support for François Legault continues to plummet; a poll released Monday even suggests that he has become the least popular prime minister in the country.
According to the Angus Reid firm, Mr. Legault has lost 16 percentage points in three months, which places him at the back of the pack, with a satisfaction rate of 31%, far behind all the other prime ministers.
This poor poll for Mr. Legault adds to those by Léger and Pallas Data, carried out in November, which suggested a drastic drop in his support among the population.

Mr. Legault’s Coalition Avenir Québec (CAQ) also hastily resurrected the third Quebec-Lévis highway link following its crushing defeat in Jean-Talon.
