The CBC Pollcast, hosted by CBC poll analyst and ThreeHundredEight.com founder Éric Grenier, explores the world of political polls and the trends they reveal.

Joining Éric on today's podcast is Susan Delacourt of the Toronto Star and iPolitics and Christian Bourque, executive vice-president at Léger, to discuss the biggest polling stories of 2015.
