Canadians still boycotting U.S. travel, costing the country billions in lost spending

Canadians continued to steer clear of the United States in October, with the month marking yet another major drop in year-over-year visitors. 

The number of Canadian residents who returned by car from the U.S. fell to 1.4 million in October, a 30.5-per-cent drop from the same period in 2024, according to preliminary data from Statistics Canada.
