Justin Trudeau is winning the economic argument in Canada’s closely fought federal election.

Polling by Nanos Research for Bloomberg shows 39 percent of Canadians rank Trudeau as the leader with the best economic platform, compared with 33 percent for Prime Minister Stephen Harper and 16 percent for New Democratic Party Leader Tom Mulcair.  The incumbent Conservative continues to be heavily favored by families with kids at home, a key voting constituency.
