Keep As CEO of Abacus, a major Canadian polling firm, he's been covered in Canadian media. I've found these two hits: dead link, and this interview in Threehundredeight.com (Canada's fivethirtynine.com). And there's others, albeit with less substantial coverage. But Abacus is legit and he does seem to be notable on his own terms, imo. Shawn in Montreal (talk) 01:17, 11 May 2014 (UTC)[reply]

Delete; doesn't appear to meet WP:PROF. Really far too young (33) and almost certainly WP:TOOSOON. The sources presented above aren't great for a WP:BLP. Barney the barney barney (talk) 20:30, 11 May 2014 (UTC)[reply]
Weak delete. The Ottawa Life story is a deadlink, and it's the only thing listed that (if it has enough detail within it, something I can't judge just from the headline) could help pass WP:GNG. Are there more like that? If so, WP:PROF may be irrelevant, but if not then I don't see the evidence of notability. —David Eppstein (talk) 21:33, 11 May 2014 (UTC)[reply]

It's not going to be WP:PROF, I'd agree. It's going to be whether he's been notably interviewed for his expertise as a leading Canadian pollster. That's what it'll hinge on, I suspect. Shawn in Montreal (talk) 00:20, 12 May 2014 (UTC)[reply]

Delete. No evidence of notability. Xxanthippe (talk) 00:59, 12 May 2014 (UTC).[reply]

I would argue that the 308.com blog interview is definitely an WP:RS in Canada, but there's not a lot for this Abacus founder individually, it's true. Shawn in Montreal (talk) 14:48, 12 May 2014 (UTC)[reply]
