A vast majority of Canadians support their government's counter-tariffs against the United States, according to a poll released on Saturday.
Four in five Canadians either support (59 percent) or somewhat support (21 percent) putting dollar-for-dollar tariffs on imports from the U.S. in response to U.S. President Donald Trump's tariffs, according to a new Nanos Research survey conducted for CTV News.
The proportion of those who outright support the counter-tariffs (59 percent) is the highest it has been.
Meanwhile, about 85 percent of respondents expressed backing for their government's decision to walk away from negotiations and reject the trade deal with the U.S., and only about 12.2 percent of those surveyed opposed the stance.
The poll also revealed concerns about the relationship between Canada and the U.S., and about 74 percent of respondents disagree that the U.S. is a trustworthy ally of Canada.
The United States and Canada failed to reach a trade deal on August 21. Washington imposed a 50-percent tariff on 20 billion U.S. dollars' worth of Canadian goods on August 22, which came into effect just after midnight (0400 GMT).
In response to the U.S. measure, Canadian Prime Minister Mark Carney said Canada would match those tariffs "dollar for dollar" to protect its workers and businesses.
