Most Canadians and Americans don't trust the UN, poll finds

The majority of Canadians and Americans do not trust the United Nations, according to a new poll.

The Leger survey for the Association for Canadian Studies (ACS) and the Metropolis Institute was conducted about four months after Hamas attacked Israel on Oct. 7, 2023. Since then, the UN has been under fire for its response to the attack, and for a UN agency’s alleged connections to the Hamas terrorists.

According to the survey, only 38 per cent of Canadians and 30 per cent of Americans trust the UN.
