Selinger had a 22 per cent approval rating in an online survey done from Feb. 26 to March 6, the Angus Reid Institute said in a news release Thursday.

While it’s an improvement on the 17 per cent approval rating Selinger had in the quarterly survey in December, it’s still the worst approval rating among provincial leaders. B.C.’s Christy Clark was second lowest at 33 per cent.
