More Canadians avoid setting foot in the U.S., 'without even a connection or layover'

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.

  • Americans fuck around, Americans find out.

    This world doesn’t need us. We’ve enjoyed decades of undeserved praise and good will from the world, and it’s inflated our ego enough that we think we’re invincible.

    • I think it's oblique to what you said:

      I think that it's actually cultural-narcissism based, and I'm saying that as a person who discovered that class-narcissism is a cultural-narcissism, at the end of a 25-day hard-line-fast to crack an obstacle in my unconscious-mind..

      Cultural-narcissism seems to be a root-rabies in .. all? .. I think so .. of our cultures.

      All the "it isn't G-D that is The Only Savior, it is OUR RELIGION that is The Only Savior" narcissisms are examples of cultural-narcissism..

      but the US of A made narcissism into its banner, to some extent..

      & I think that that, itself, betrayed your culture, & certainly your people..

      Remember what the TV-footage of people in the US was like, after Sept 11, 2001?

      All the people wearing "superhero" outfits?

      Their unconscious-minds asserting through the outfit they were wearing that reality wasn't allowed to treat them as mere-humans?

      Their symbol-outfit, or symbol-culture, was supposed to be sufficient?

      They were supposed to be inherently immune?

      I think it was one of the most-blatent expressions of unconscious-mind's delusion-about-non-equality in recent history.

      & I think that ALL national-narcissisms are doing the same thing, in different ways..

      I think cultural-narcissism knifes-in-the-back the country it grows-in, inevitably.

      "The world doesn't need us" Hoomin, the world needs good people, no matter what country you're in.

      The world doesn't need machiavellian nationalism, not ANYone's, right?

      But the world NEEDS good people, now, everywhere.

      & we need to not break or give-up, until we win..

      no matter how many decades this takes.
