Vast majority of Canadians no longer consider the United States a friendly country

A new study by Léger has found that the vast majority of Canadians no longer consider the United States to be a friendly country.

Following tariffs and threats of annexation, just 27% of Canadians say they consider the United States to be an ally.

Conservatives (44%) are significantly more likely to consider the United States an ally than Liberal (17%), NDP (12%) and Bloc Québécois voters (24%).

A previous study by the Angus Reid Institute also found that a large majority of Canadians are boycotting American products.
