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.
Well… of course they are. We’re threatening their right to exist. Don’t get me wrong, I don’t necessarily always see eye to eye with Canada and its people, but this is beyond fucked up.
States dont have a right to exist. People have a right to self determination, which can be exercised through a state with proper representation.
So the US is threatening the right to self determination of the Canadian people, although both the US and Canada have been built as European colonies on the genocide of the rightful people of the continent called North America.
Of course acknowledging the US history of oppression, slavery and genocide is something the Trump admin wants to suppress.
The whole “states right to exist” thing is thrown around by Israel as another genocidal settler colony.
Referring to Canada as the “51st State” and their prime minister as “governor” is a direct attack and invalidation of Canada, its culture, and its people’s distinct identity. This isn’t just about sovereignty. This is about us trying to erase them
