This story got quite a bit of coverage on CTV today and was one of the topics on Don Martin's Power Play show tonight.
It will be interesting to see whether this trend continues.

Poll gives high marks to Harper, but Rae gaining
Voting-age Canadians rate Prime Minister Stephen Harper as the most competent and trustworthy federal political leader, but a new poll suggests Liberal Leader Bob Rae is making the most gains with the electorate.
. . .
Harper received a leadership index score of 97.2, which was down from 114.2 in the previous month.
Rae had a score of 49.9, which was well behind the prime minister, but up more than 10 points from September.
Turmel fell from 34.5 in September to 31.3 in October, while May jumped from 12.5 to 21.0 in the leadership scoring.
