U.S. Tourism Faces Major Decline Due to Canadian BoycottA new report by the U.S. Travel Association warns of a $5.7 billion US loss in 2025 as Canadian travel to the U.S. continues to plummet—down 24% by air and 30% by land compared to last year. The decline began after Donald Trump’s return to office, his trade war with Canada, and inflammatory remarks calling it the “51st state.” Canadians—who make up 28% of all U.S. foreign visitors—are avoiding trips out of protest, leading to job risks and lower tax revenue in tourism-heavy states. Trump’s administration has further strained relations with new tariffs and a border registration rule requiring long-stay Canadians to be photographed and fingerprinted. Many snowbirds say they’ll spend their winters elsewhere, while U.S. towns like Kalispell, Montana are offering discounts to lure them back. The fallout now threatens America’s long-standing travel trade surplus, projected to turn into a $70 billion deficit.Ref: Sophia Harris, CBC News (Nov 12 2025)#CanadaUSRelations #TourismCrisis #TradeTensions #Snowbirds Beloud
