OTTAWA (Reuters) - Canadian Prime Minister Justin Trudeau is gathering his government and lawmakers this week to talk about crucial issues, including housing and food prices, as he seeks to claw back support ahead of a likely fourth election run next year.

Conservative leader Pierre Poilievre would clobber Trudeau if an election were held today, according to an Angus Reid Institute poll published on Monday. Conservatives would take 41% versus 24% for Liberals, according to 1,620 adults surveyed on Jan. 16-17.
