Canadians promised to boycott travel to US. They meant it

If only that was to translate to cheaper hotel room prices in the US. Currently they are sky high.

Surprised Canadians would pick the US as a tourist destination to begin with.

Europe is cheaper and more fun. America's one advantage: nature, is matched and at times exceeded by Canada. Flights to warm places like Miami and SD take just as long as Mexico or the Caribbean.

Other than NYC and Utah-area national parks, I can't think of unique reasons for Canadians to vacation in the US specifically.

US is far easier to get to. Just go to a Maine or NH beach the the summer. People from Quebec are everywhere.

FWIW, you have not lived until you see a way overweight man wearing only a tiny bikini bathing suit :)

There were lots of places in the USA that (as a Canadian) my family and friends loved visiting - Kauai for hiking and beaches, Mt. Baker for skiing, bay area for all the weird stuff that goes on there, Nevada for that thing in the desert, Oregon coast for surfing, Utah-area parks like you said, hiking in Washington.

Lots of amazing outdoor adventures to be had in the USA. Now days I don't know anyone that goes to the states.

At one point, the largest cohort of illegal immigrants in the US was Canadian visa overstays. They must have liked something about the place...

Shorter, cheaper flights. Toronto to Orlando is 2.5 hrs I think?

All the major Canadian airports also have the US customs and immigration on-site. You go through it as part of the standard airport security process and then the airplane goes to a domestic terminal when it lands, as if the flight had originated within the US. You get off the plane, grab your luggage and leave, no additional lines, security, talking to officials, etc.

The only European airport that does this is Dublin, last I checked.

As a Canadian, we don't think of travelling to the US as "international travel". It's more like going to a friends house.

I remember flying Alaska Airlines out of SFO and when I went to check-in at the International Terminal, the gate agent said "Canada isn't International" and looked at me like I was the dumbest human on the planet.

Either she was seeing Trump's future, or....

US prices are insane if you're paid in CAD. The good news is that Canada is great if you're paid in USD and are used to costal prices. It's like going to a third world country.
FartinMowler•56m ago
It's not really a promised or conscious boycott. It's after weighing the pros and cons, many of them intangible, the feeling is visiting the US right now could result in unpleasantness ... and if there is anything Canadians are adverse to it is unpleasantness. Anecdata: a friend of ours crossing the US border, despite being a VP at a bank, for her first time ever had to surrender her phone for examination by US border agents. Who needs that!

It's almost like Trump is making a series of consistently terrible decisions that are economically and socially bad for America.
vondur•3m ago
I would imagine the economic situation in Canada isn't helping either.
