Polls indicate Conservatives poised to defeat rival Liberals in Canada's federal elections.
(From AP Worldstream)
Byline: BETH DUFF-BROWN
Canada's Conservative Party, which would be more in line with the Bush administration policies, appeared to gain strength in its quest to end 13 years of Liberal Party rule as campaigning for national elections entered it's final weak.
Opinion polls released Monday show that Stephen Harper's opposition Conservatives were holding an advantage of 8 and 13 percentage points over Prime Minister Paul Martin's Liberal Party _ a gap that analysts say will be very difficult for the ruling party to overcome by Jan. 23, when voters will cast ballots for the 308-seat House of Commons.
In November, Martin's minority government was forced to call elections after it lost a no-confidence vote. Opponents have accused the Liberals of corruption and broken promises, themes that have resonated with voters.
