In 2024, more than 20 million Canadians visited the US, according to the U.S. Travel Association — more than any other nationality.

But final figures posted on Friday by the US National Travel and Tourism Office (NTTO), show a 21% drop in Canadian arrivals last year compared with 2024 — representing about 4.2 million fewer Canadian visitors.

      Some people just don’t care. The gas prices will probably decrease travel more than Canadian’s principles.

        For me it’s not even about principles, it’s about safety. How are these people so stupid as to go there with ICE detaining random tourists for the hell of it

        I bet it’s not surprising that the hubs for the world’s two worst airlines are in conservative Canadian provinces.

        about the same, Canada has a lot of FFFFs traveling to US and that won’t change.

        a significant number of Canadians would vote for Donald Trump if they could. We almost voted in Poilievre, but across Canada we have Moe, Smith, Ford, all MAGA politicians who refer to themselves as Republicans, which is all the PC party of Canada is.

      I wonder if part of it is people who had plans made already didn’t change them. Next year will give us a better idea. I do know some people who traveled to the US to visit friends, and I get it, but even they are saying they’re done and their friends can come here instead.
