On March 3, 2025 the CBC reported on a survey that found that 10% of Canadians questioned thought that joining the US was a good idea.

On the face of it that may seem like a lot of people.

But in a November 2023 poll, Leger found that the are lots of Canadian's with some rather odd beliefs.

• 5% believe "The earth is flat"
• 11% believe "The lunar landings are a hoax"
• 12% believe "The visible streaks left by aircraft in the sky are actually chemicals intentionally sprayed for various undisclosed purposes, known as chemtrails"
• 17% believe "The 2020 election was rigged and stolen from Donald Trump"
