JUST IN:Canadian voters reveal who they believe could defeat Trump in a fight…MORE DETAILS

Canadian voters want a prime minister who can stand up to President Donald Trump as they prepare to elect a leader on Monday, and they have a favorite when it comes to who would win in a fight with the U.S. president.

Mark Carney, the Liberal prime minister, is facing off with the head of the Conservatives, Pierre Poilievre, in next week’s contest.

A new poll conducted for DailyMail.com by J&L Partners showed the level of influence the American president has on Canadian politics.

And while the voters thought both men could do well against Trump in a fight – at 44 percent each – they gave Poilievre a better margin of victory at 25 points versus 17 points for Carney.

The poll showed Trump is heavily on voters’ minds as they make their decision. And Canadians said one of their top goals – at 60 percent – was ‘to get a PM to stand up to Donald Trump.’

They also listed standing up for Canada – at 40 percent – as their top goal, followed by solving the cost living at 21 percent and ‘negotiating a good deal’ with Trump at 15 percent.

Additionally, voters revealed which of their candidates they see as most like the American president.

That is where Poilievre may have a disadvantage. More voters – 47 percent – saw him as similar to Trump compared to the 19 percent who see Carney that way.

Poilievre has campaigned in a Trump-like style, even taking a page from the ‘America First’ president by adopting the slogan ‘Canada First.’

Trump has infuriated Canadians with his bashing of their country and openly musing about making it a part of the United States. As a result, a fiery feeling of nationalism has sprung up among America’s neighbor to the north.

‘Trump has immersed himself into our lives and has defined the ballot question,’ former Quebec Premier Jean Charest said.

The president also has imposed multiple tariffs on Canada – and threatened there could be more.

He slapped a 25 percent tariff on Canadian goods in March, with an exception for energy products and potash, which received a 10 percent tariff.

And he put a 25 percent on all steel and aluminum imports.

Additionally, on Wednesday, the president warned that a 25 percent tariff imposed on cars imported from Canada to the United States could go up.

But, despite all that, he said he doesn’t want to get involved in Canadian politics.

‘Oh I don’t want to predict other nation’s elections,’ he said Wednesday when asked about it.

‘It’s tough enough doing this one. Look, I love the Canadian people. I like Canada, but it’s costing us $200 billion a year to support Canada. 200 billion and I say, why are we doing that?’

His trade war and attacks have led Canadians to cancel trips to the U.S. and refuse to buy American goods.

And it may have contributed to record early voting in that country, with 7.3 million Canadians casting ballots before election day.

Both Carney and Poilievre said that if elected, they would accelerate renegotiations of Canada’s free trade deal in an effort to end the uncertainty hurting both of their economies.

Carney, in particular, has notable experience navigating economic crises, having done so when he ran Canada´s central bank and when he later became the first non-U.K. citizen to run the Bank of England since its founding in 1694.

Meanwhile, the DailyMail.com/JLPartners poll found Trump is deeply disliked among Canadians – 72 percent disapprove of him while only 16 percent approve.

Voters used words like ‘arrogant,’ ‘bully’ and ‘stupid’ to describe the American president.

Additionally, Trump is seen as biggest threat to Canada. A vast majority – 73 percent – gave him that moniker.

The next world leader doesn’t even come close: Chinese President Xi Jinping came in at 9 percent, followed by Russian President Vladimir Putin at 6 percent.

The poll also found that just 15 percent of Canadians are planning a holiday trip to the US right now — far fewer than the number who visited in 2024.

Roughly 20 million Canadians visited the US last year, before Trump’s second term in the White House, according to researchers at J.L. Partners.

Another 39 percent of Canadians sad they would normally be planning a US trip, but were avoiding it this year.

Some 40 percent said they did not typically travel to the US, and another 7 percent said they were not sure how they felt about it.
