A bit over a year ago, we were making holiday plans including a trip to the US. When the orange menace got re-elected I convinced my wife that we should just do a longer Canadian leg for the trip. Best decision ever.

I know it’s anecdotal, but my Canadian coworkers all canceled their trips to the US. They all switched to Europe or Mexico.

Good but I still know people going there like nothing is out of the ordinary. I won’t be satisfied until nobody is going there. And these people I know don’t support Trump.

I live in one of the biggest tourist areas in America, and business is WAY down, and I’m all for it. Let the big corporate tourism jackals feel the pain.
