The Montreal Gazette's Philip Authier suggests Justin Trudeau might lose his Montréal seat to the NDP. This would make him the second Liberal leader in a row so defeated.

A new poll commissioned by the New Democratic Party suggests Justin Trudeau could be in trouble in his home riding of Papineau in the Oct. 19 election.

The CROP poll handed to the media Thursday shows NDP candidate Anne Lagacé Dowson leading Trudeau in voter intentions.

Support for Dowson was pegged at 46 per cent compared to 35 per cent for Trudeau, the Liberal Party leader. Running third is the Bloc Québécois candidate Maxime Claveau with 10 per cent support among poll respondents, while Conservative candidate Yvon Vadnais has five per cent.

The Green Party candidate, Danny Polifroni, is sitting at four per cent.
