The poll suggests another 30 per cent still say they consider the U.S. an ally.

Summary

A new Leger poll reveals that 27% of Canadians now consider the U.S. an “enemy” country, while 30% still see it as an ally.

The survey follows escalating tensions, including President Trump’s tariff threats and his suggestion that Canada should become a U.S. state.

Trump remains widely unpopular in Canada, with 74% viewing him unfavorably. Political affiliation influences perceptions, with Conservatives more likely to see the U.S. as an ally.

Liberals, NDP, and Bloc Québécois supporters view the U.S. more negatively.

    I’m an American and also see the United States as an enemy country. Our worst enemy, in fact.

      Damn Americans! They ruined America!

      Snark aside, you’re completely right. The country that’s going to suffer the most damage at America’s hands is America itself.

        Absolutely. Trump’s and the Project 2025’s “America First” strategy is essentially turning US imperialism inward on its own citizens now that the former global dominance is waning.
