Summary
Canadians are boycotting U.S. travel in response to Trump’s tariffs and policies. A recent survey found 59% are less likely to visit the U.S. this year, with 36% canceling trips.
Airlines report declining demand, and tourism-dependent regions like Florida and New York’s Thousand Islands are adjusting marketing strategies.
Some Canadians refuse to even transit through the U.S. Businesses in Mexico, the Caribbean, and Bermuda are benefiting from the shift.
Critics argue Trump’s policies are harming American tourism and local economies.
That’s good, though I still feel uncomfortable about it!
Am I paranoid for worrying that the US might order flights from Canada to Mexico to be diverted to a US airport so that ICE can look for “illegals and DEI folk”?
It is paranoid, but honestly, I’ve thought the same. I don’t think I’ll be going anywhere for awhile in any case, except maybe Greenland! Always wanted to go there.
