Canadians are avoiding the U.S. over Trump’s bluster and border arrests—crossings down 22%

Quick Summary:

Trump’s attacks on Canada’s economy and threats to make it the 51st state have infuriated Canadians, who are canceling trips to the U.S.in big numbers.

Ben Wilson, 37, also has qualms about trying to cross.“Why would I want to? ” he said.“Regardless of the tariffs, if I’m going to be stopped at the border for my phone or something somebody texted me, why go?

But there has been a big drop in foreigners traveling to the U.S. since Trump took office, and Canadians are no exception.
