From Venezuela to Greenland? Canadians Wary of U.S. Military Ambitions

Léger: Most Canadians say their view of Washington has worsened following the American intervention in Venezuela, with oil widely seen as the real motive.

As reports swirl about the United States potentially taking action against its fellow NATO member Denmark over Greenland, Canadians are still processing the American military intervention in Venezuela earlier this month.

A new Léger survey asked Canadians how their opinion of the U.S. government has changed following the operation in Venezuela and the subsequent kidnapping of President Nicolás Maduro.

Overall, 56% of Canadians say their opinion of the American government has worsened in light of those events, while just 9% say it has improved. Another 21% report no change in their view of Washington.
