In a poll conducted from September to November of this year, Prime Minister Trudeau is nearly as disliked as President-elect Donald Trump. About 64 percent of Canadians dislike Trump, while 60 percent dislike Trudeau.
The poll indicates that only 22 percent of Canadians view Trudeau positively, while just one percent fewer Canadians view Trump positively.
A recent poll by the Enviornics Institute found that Canadian support for Trump was higher than it was during the last U.S. presidential election, though still lower than support for the Democrat nominee, Vice President Kamala Harris. Only 21 percent of Canadians would have voted for Trump if they were able.
