US EditionTrump's rhetoric rallies Canadian support for Prime Minister Mark Carney
Trump's aggressive rhetoric has increased Canadian nationalism, helping Mark Carney maintain a 22-point lead in polls and rallying support across political lines, experts say.
- On Jan 22, renewed verbal attacks from U.S. President Donald Trump prompted Canadians to rally behind Prime Minister Mark Carney, who earned a rare standing ovation in Davos for decrying economic integration as weapons.
- The U.S. President's repeated threats, including calls to make Canada the 51st state, have triggered Canadians to cut travel, boycott American booze and prioritize Canadian goods.
- Polling and last year's election results point to measurable political gains for Carney; most polls show his approval above 50% with Nanos Research placing him 22 points ahead of Pierre Poilievre.
- There is a growing sense of pride among Canadians that Carney confronted Trump, with support crossing party lines including some Conservatives and James Moore urging unity to listen to the speech.
- To reduce reliance on the U.S., Carney last week struck a China trade deal, sought Middle East partnerships, dropped a digital services tax, and faces CUSMA review this year.
