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 view the U.S. as an enemy country right now, and I live here.
I’ll never understand staying in a place you hate.
We are absolutely an enemy to the free world now. There used to be a tiny sliver of decency, but that has long since been abandoned.
To the rest of the world: take us down.
Meanwhile, at the Kremlin
US citizen here and I’m surprised that 27% isn’t much higher.

I’m guessing it’s a split between considering the govt an enemy but not the people, along with people who think it’s nearing-but-not-quite an enemy.
27% seems a little low.
About 90% of people I know avoid buying American goods if possible now…
Yeah, far too low.
They should.
Our populace is too stupid to vote responsibly, which means the filth will always rise to the top, which means our government will always be corrupt, which means it can’t be trusted.
Distance yourself from us. Form allegiances with other countries. We cannot be trusted.
I’m sorry. I’ve voted at every opportunity to prevent this outcome. Many of us have. Just not enough.
As long as the entire government apparatus proves entirely useless in the face of Puckered Asshole Lips, we absolutely are an enemy of any country with the slightest hint of decency.
Shocked it’s not higher
Yeah the current US government is an enemy to everyone right now, a cancer that needs to be excised.
The United States of America is the enemy of the free world
And rightfully so. We currently have a dictator that is threatening to absorb them into the collective shithole that America has become…
I cannot blame them one bit and I’m surprised the percentage is that low.
No shit! Should be more frankly.
what was the number before 2016 or just 6 months ago?
The poll was conducted between Feb. 14 and Feb. 17
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.

We did have an idea, we saw the gas chambers. Now just like the Israelis, we’re taking a turn at being the bad guy, so yeah arm and practice. Slow is smooth, smooth is fast
Sorry Canada
