Vast majority of Canadians believe Trump is turning the world against the United States [View all]

80% of Canadians believe Trump is harming the interests of Americans.

According to a new study by Spark Insights, the vast majority of Canadians agree that President Donald Trump is turning the world against the United States.

80% of Canadians believe Trump is harming the interests and prospects of Americans and turning the world against the U.S. Just 20% think Trump will end up creating good outcomes for Americans.

“The impact of Trump on the world combined with the approach and focus of Carney have essentially restructured the political agenda and priority list for Canadians. If there’s a sharp dividing line in Canadian politics today, it’s the difference between northern MAGA voters and the large majority who have an intense dislike of the U.S. President. Only 16% of Canadians have a positive feeling about Trump.”
