Trump’s Canada-bashing echoed by supporters at Dallas convention
Thousands of President Donald Trump's supporters gathered in Dallas for 'Trump-a-Palooza' and echoed his criticism of Canada during the Republican midterm convention.
Trump joked about renaming Lake Ontario to 'Lake America' and claimed Canada is eager for a trade deal during his speech.
Gallup polling showed that Canada's favorable rating among Republicans dropped 23 points from 85% in 2025 to 62% in 2026 amid rising anti-Canada rhetoric.
A supporter named Lona Heins from Tennessee called Canada 'communist' and expressed a desire for more information on trade tensions caused by the Trump administration.
