Just 16 per cent of Canadians polled by Leger say Canada has a good relationship with the U.S., compared to 15 per cent for ties with Russia.

Meanwhile, 36 per cent of Canadians say Ottawa has a good relationship with Beijing, while the number ranks higher than 75 per cent for ties with Mexico, the European Union and the U.K.

I mean, is anybody surprised? No matter how many underhanded deals and other political problems and disputes China has had with us, that's nothing compared to outright threats of annexation. Nothing threatens a people like outright ceasing to exist.

Considering that they don't link to the report and I can't find it on their website who knows?

This is apparently where all the stories are coming from. Still doesn't have the actual document but:

Atlantic: 20%
Quebec: 12%
Ontario: 18%
Manitoba/Saskatchewan: 16%
Alberta: 17%
British Columbia: 15%
