US EditionShare of Americans ranking Canada as top ally U.S. doubles despite Trump’s rhetoric: Pew poll
- A March 2025 survey by the Pew Research Center, which included over 3,600 American adults, found that 12% of respondents identified Canada as the United States' top ally, doubling from 6% in 2023.
- This rise occurred amid former President Trump's claims that Canada exploits the U.S. Economically, including imposing tariffs that threaten industries like Ontario’s automotive sector.
- The poll revealed a partisan divide: 87% of Democrats and 61% of Republicans held a favorable view of Canada, while trade benefits perception also split by party.
- Pew senior researcher Janell Fetterolf noted the split support and described the trade attitudes as "more positive than what we see" toward other countries, despite ongoing tensions.
- These results imply that American opinions on Canada as an ally have grown cautiously more favorable, though political divides and trade disputes continue to affect bilateral relations.
