More than half of Canadians surveyed think the American intervention in Venezuela violated the country’s sovereignty and set a bad precedent. Less than a third of the Canadians who responded thought the intervention was justified because it removed a “corrupt regime.” In comparison, about 40% of Americans thought it was justified.
According to the survey, 56% of Canadians also said they have a worse impression of the U.S. government after the intervention than they did before it.
