As the United States fumbles its response to the COVID-19 crisis, a new survey suggests fewer and fewer Canadians are holding their southern neighbour in high regard.
The Research Co. poll, which was conducted earlier this month, found just 32 per cent of Canadians have a "very positive" or "moderately positive" view of the U.S. That's down 15 points from December.
The number is even lower in British Columbia, where just 26 per cent of respondents reported having positive feelings for Donald Trump's America – and 71 per cent said their views were "mostly negative" or "moderately negative." By comparison, at least two-thirds of respondents said they feel positively about all the other Group of Seven countries: the United Kingdom, Japan, Italy, France and Germany.
