Using my usual method (see prior posts for details) here are the seat projections based on the latest SCC poll results.
| CPC | Lib | NDP | BQ | Oth | |
| National | 170 | 75 | 8 | 54 | 1 |
| Atlantic | 18 | 14 | 0 | 0 | 0 |
| Quebec | 7 | 13 | 0 | 54 | 1 |
| Ontario | 70 | 35 | 1 | 0 | 0 |
| Prairies | 45 | 7 | 4 | 0 | 0 |
| BC | 30 | 4 | 2 | 0 | 0 |
This is the best of the recent polls for the CPC. In fact it is the best since the last election so it would be a fortuitous coincidence if it is the most accurate. Regardless, it is at least a hopeful sign that a majority government is within our grasp. It is certainly going to dampen whatever enthusiasm any Liberals may have for a spring election. And for Layton it would be suicide - reducing his party to below official party status.
