While Canadians have been having a love-in with Barack Obama this week, Americans apparently also have good feelings for their neighbor to the north.

Nove em cada 10 Americans view Canada favorably, according to a recent Gallup Poll. Only six percent have a negative view of Canada.

Este é o fourth year in a row that Canada has topped the favorability ratings. Em 2008, 92 percent of Americans gave Canada favorable marks.

The same survey found that “Grã-Bretanha, another English-speaking ally of the United States, quase corresponde Canadá em sua U.S. popularity, com um 89% favorable rating. Japan and Germany fall a notch lower, viewed favorably by about 8 em 10 Americanos, followed by France, Índia, e Israel, all with positive ratings around 64%.”
