OTTAWA — As President Donald Trump’s administration continues to erode allies’ trust, a new poll says the Canadians surveyed who say they hold a favourable view of China now outnumber those who say the same of the United States.
Recent polling by the Pew Research Center found Trump receiving mostly negative ratings from countries around the world.
Today, the agency released new polling that shows two in five Canadian respondents have a favourable view of China, while one in three say the same about the U.S.
Pew polled 1,020 Canadians by phone between mid-February and mid-April, shortly after Prime Minister Mark Carney’s visit to Beijing.
