Canadians oppose attack on Iraq: poll



By Our Correspondent


TORONTO, Sept 10: Most Canadians are not in favour of Ottawa’s participation in George W. Bush’s planned war on Iraq, a fresh survey revealed here.

The survey conducted by Ekos Research Associates showed that only 38 per cent of Canadians favour joining a US-led attack on Saddam Hussein’s Iraq. Forty-four per cent oppose participation and another 18 per cent were undecided or had no opinion.

In January, 52 per cent Canadians supported participating in military action against Iraq, 26 per cent were opposed and 22 per cent were either ambivalent or had no opinion.

The poll shows that one year after the Sept 11 terrorist attacks, Canadians, who supported the war in Afghanistan, are beginning to move on.

The details of the new poll were published by The Toronto Star at a time when President Bush was meeting Canadian Prime Minister Jean Chritien in Detroit on Monday.
