New Poll Reveals What Terrifies Canadians About Trump 2.0

LOADING ERROR LOADING The majority of Canadians fear a Donald Trump return to the White House, a new poll has suggested. In an Angus Reid Institute survey of 1,510 adults, almost two thirds (64%) agreed or strongly agreed that U.S. democracy may not survive a second Trump presidency. Almost half (49%) of the respondents worried the U.S.

is “on the way to becoming an authoritarian state.” Advertisement Some 62% said the U.S. would be “much worse” under Trump again. Regarding relations between the U.S. and Canada, 64% thought Biden was a more stable POTUS. More than 50% said Biden is better for Canada’s economy, with 29% saying it didn’t matter, economically speaking for Canada, who was the occupant of the Oval Office.

Despite being indicted in four criminal cases, Trump remains the clear Republican 2024 front runner and on Monday cruised to victory in the Iowa caucuses, meaning a replay of the 2020 election between himself and Biden remains on the cards.
