Apparently, Canadians Think Justin Trudeau Should Be On The Naughty List This Year

His naughty rating is higher than Doug Ford's!

Senior Writer

People were surveyed about who has been naughty or nice this year and it looks like Justin Trudeau might be getting a lump of coal!

A new poll by Ipsos released on December 23 revealed the politicians, celebrities and national figures who Canadians think will end up on Santa's naughty and nice lists this year.

Trudeau is the Canadian politician who the most people (40%) said should be on the naughty list. However, when international politicians are included, he comes after Russian President Vladimir Putin (44%).

While almost half of Canadians think Trudeau should get a lump of coal this year, 18% said he has been good enough to get on the nice list.

For the other national leaders, Jagmeet Singh had 19% of Canadians say he should be on the nice list, and 11% say naughty, while Erin O'Toole had 7% say he should be on the nice list and 22% say the naughty list.

Ontario Premier Doug Ford rounds out the politicians who are at the top of the naughty list. In the poll, 29% of respondents said they think he'll get coal on Christmas this year.

Justin Bieber is the Canadian celebrity that most people said should get a spot on Santa's naughty list this year.

On the other end of the spectrum, healthcare workers are at the top of the nice list, with 54% of Canadians saying they've been good this year.

Rounding out the top five is Ryan Reynolds with 29% of Canadians saying he should be on the nice list, Queen Elizabeth II with 25%, Dr. Theresa Tam with 23% and Greta Thunberg with 22%!
