New Poll Shows Americans Prefer Canada Over Trump by Nearly 60 Points

CNN’s on-air analysis cast the gap as a liability during the president’s tariff fight with Canada.

Overview

  • CNN data analyst Harry Enten highlighted polling that puts Canada’s net favorability among Americans at +49 versus -10 for President Trump.
  • Enten said Americans would choose Canada over Trump in most cases and noted growing opposition to tariffs, especially those targeting Canada.
  • He reported that 48% of Canadians now view the United States as an enemy or potential threat, up from 7% in 2023.
  • Enten cited figures showing the Trump administration’s net rating in Canada at -58, underscoring sharply negative views north of the border.
  • The polling comes as Trump cut off trade talks and raised tariffs after a Canadian province ran an ad using Ronald Reagan quotes that he said were manipulated.
