Study Suggests Americans Approve of Security and Border Co-operation with Canada

Published February 26th, 2007


SES Research in a new poll have found that American citizens are supportive of increased co-operation with Canada when it comes to border security. This co-operation also extends to an intergrated energy policy and anti-terror measures. SES President Nikita Nanos says of the poll, "More than eight of ten Americans support greater co-operation with Canada on border security, anti-terrorism measures and having an integrated energy policy.". The SES poll shows American support for greater co-operation with Canada cut across all regions of the US. In contrast, Canada, in particular Quebecers, while they are still supportive of co-operation with the US, were found to be more likely to have less overall support for co-operation. Emerging Canadian energy dominance played a strong part in the high support felt by Americans. In their rush to remove themselves from their long dependence on Middle East oil and everything that comes with it, nearly 90% of Americans found an integrated energy policy as very important. Canadians were only slightly less enthusiastic of this development at 85% support.
