flag Canadian trust in the U.S. has plummeted to 36%, with growing distrust tied to trade tensions and shifting global alliances.

flag A new Environics Institute study finds that only 36% of Canadians now view the United States as a friend, a sharp drop from 89% in 2013, while 27% see it as an enemy, up from 1%. flag The survey of 2,004 Canadians conducted in September shows a deep partisan divide, with Conservative supporters far more likely to view the U.S. favorably than Liberal or NDP supporters. flag Similar declines in trust are seen toward India and Israel, while perceptions of Russia and China as enemies have risen. flag The findings reflect growing skepticism toward longtime allies amid shifting geopolitical dynamics and recent trade tensions, including threats by President Donald Trump to impose tariffs on Canadian imports.
