Canadian Travel to US Plummets Amid Political Tensions
February marked the second consecutive month of declining Canadian car trips to the U.S., with a 23% decrease compared to the previous year. This significant drop follows similar declines in January, unprecedented since March 2021. Contributing factors include President Trump’s economic threats against Canada, a weakened Canadian dollar increasing travel costs, and severe snowstorms impacting travel conditions. Air travel to the U.S. also experienced a slight decrease.
