A new poll reveals that Canadians are more likely to support retaliatory measures against potential U.S. tariffs than negotiation. The poll also explores Canadians' views on various countermeasures, including tariffs on U.S. goods and suspending energy exports. Furthermore, the poll examines Canadians' preferences for who should lead the country in navigating this trade dispute.

Data Dive with Nik Nanos: Canadians are ready for a trade war with Trump . But who they want leading the charge is changingNik Nanos is the chief data scientist at Nanos Research, research adjunct professor at the Norman Paterson School for International Affairs at Carleton University, a global fellow at the Woodrow Wilson International Center for Scholars in Washington and the official pollster for The Globe and Mail and CTV News.

Of note, two of three residents of the Prairie provinces are good with using energy to hit back at the Americans.

With federal politics transfixed on Mr. Trump, Canadians are thinking twice about who should lead the country. On the eve of Justin Trudeau’s resignation, Pierre Poilievre’s Conservatives had a whopping Second, the next election will not be a referendum on Mr. Trudeau and also will not be a referendum on the Liberal Party of Canada. The next election will be decided by a simple question: Who can best manage Canada’s relationship with Mr. Trump? Pragmatism may override anger and party loyalty.
