A majority of Canadians believe U.S. foreign policy was one of the root causes that led to the Sept. 11, 2001 attacks, and Quebecers are quicker to criticize the U.S. administration for its international actions than other Canadians, a recent poll suggests.
Those conclusions are found in a newly released poll conducted by Léger Marketing for the Association for Canadian Studies.
The poll suggests that 77 per cent of Quebecers polled primarily blame American foreign policy for the Sept. 11 attacks. The results suggest 57 per cent in Ontario hold a similar view.
Canadian opinions have hardened against the United States and its role on the world stage, said Jack Jedwab, executive director of the Association for Canadian Studies. The wars in Afghanistan and Iraq have contributed to a change of heart among people, he said.

Not only must the southern border be closed, but the northern border as well. People this stupid cannot be allowed into this country to breed.
Between this stupid remark and the stupid NDP resolution on calling our soldiers fighting in Afganistan terrorists, I am really starting to blow a gasket today. This make me wonder how the Harper conservatives got as far as they did in the last election.
My thoughts exactly.
How is the above relevant to the poll?
Funny, I never saw that headline.
PS: Jack Jedwab??
We love our neighbor, Canada, but we also know it is a very weak, tepid country...devoid of anything that sounds like "the stiff upper British lip type". Check out how many they have in their military to take charge if things go bad....it is really sad.
Ontario....... Massachuttes wanabe
Let's nuke Toronto and blame this poll. This poll makes me feel bad, that is enough of an excuse.
Jealously of others more successful than themselves leads to these type of opinions.
Most Canadians are right eh! Our foreign policy should been to continually crush the Islamofacists ever since they drew first blood in 1979.
Who really cares what Canadiens think, after all aren't a lot of them French.
It is this Cannuck mindset that has kept me from fishing in Canada for several years, plus the fact you can't enjoy a good cold beer in your boat.
Will Canadians blame themselves when they are attacked?
I'm waiting with baited breath for the the results of the same poll that must have been conducted in Mexico.
Appease Nazi Germany, you die. Appease terrorists, you die.
As the old saying goes, "Some people live and learn. And some people just live, and live, and live..."
Canada is against the US, as well as the whole continent of Europe, Russia, China and India.
What is the matter with the world? Why are they abandoning and isolating us? Are they perhaps envious of our sole-remaining superpower status?
Unless they think that the few months that Bush was in office caused everything, I'd say that they put the blame where it belongs....on Clinton.
Thanks for the ping, 1Rudeboy.
Canada ping.
Please send me a FReepmail to get on or off this Canada ping list.
