Most Canadians want the federal government to take a harder line in trade negotiations with the United States, according to a new Leger poll. The survey shows that slightly more than half of respondents support a firm stance with no further concessions. Only about a third of participants believe Canada should be more flexible in discussions. The poll highlights growing public concern over trade agreements and their impact on national interests. The results were released as part of ongoing debates about Canada’s economic relationship with the United States. The findings suggest a shift in public opinion toward protectionist policies. This comes amid increased scrutiny of trade deals and their effects on domestic industries. The poll was conducted in Canada and reflects the views of a representative sample of the population. The data underscores the importance of public sentiment in shaping trade policy.
