Donald Trump no longer top of mind for many Canadians as worries shift to economy, cost of living, poll finds

Canadians are more worried about the high cost of living and the economy than they are about Donald Trump and his administration, according to the latest Abacus survey, reversing a past trend where the U.S. president was the top concern.

The shift signals a change from the federal election in April when Canadians were more worried about a trade war with the U.S., a factor that helped Prime Minister Mark Carney get elected, explained Abacus chair and CEO David Coletto, because voters believed Carney was better equipped to deal with the American leader.
