Two-thirds of Canadians say that the trade relationship with the United States is “very” or “extremely” important for the Canadian economy, according to a recent survey.

The Ipsos poll, commissioned by think tank MEI, surveyed 1,000 Canadians on the country’s relationship with the United States. The survey was completed online between Sept. 29 and Oct. 1.
