Maybe 20%, with another 60% that just wasn’t worried about it very much.
Enough that the Liberals were on their way to a historic wipe out absent Trump pissing all over the Canadian export industry. Pierre Poilievre was fully on the American bandwagon, straight up echoing Republican talking points word-for-word in his campaign appearances, prior to January. The 60% that “wasn’t worried” was happy enough to support a Vichy Canadian government practically days before the vote.
Fascism was trendy and influential in polite circles all through the 1920’s and early 30’s.
Comically easy to forget how half the English royal family was Nazi-pilled right up until the bombs started landing. Or that American big business profited handsomely from the reconstruction of the German War Machine.
Folks really don’t like to think further back than 1941 when it comes to global political history. And even then… Yalta might as well have had Stalin airbrushed out.
You said Trump bus originally. We were on the American bus, not the Trump bus. Once there was a change of driver to Trump, we got off at the next stop, as you pointed out.
Also most Canadians didn’t love PP either. Instead we were united in hating Trudeau, which is why the libs started climbing in the polls as soon as Trudeau left the room. Before there was a new leader.

Alberta Premier Danielle Smith visits Donald Trump at Mar-a-Lago
One poll in the 2020s, noted by the Toronto Star, showed that about 50% of Americans are against Canada joining, 25% are in favour, and 25% are not sure
And this shit is snowballing as reactionaries drive the media cycle, particularly in states like Alberta.
Alberta is not a state.
