Canadian Support for Joint U.S. Energy Policy Falls

Canadians are becoming less supportive of cooperating with the U.S. on energy policy amid delays over the Keystone XL pipeline, new polling from both countries shows.

The share of Canadians who describe as important an integrated energy policy between the two countries fell to 75 percent from last year’s reading of 78 percent and 84 percent in 2009, according to a study by Nanos Research and the State University of New York at Buffalo. Support in the U.S. for an integrated energy policy was unchanged at 84 percent.
