## Resource

Canada’s once-booming U.S. tourism is in freefall as political tensions, trade disputes, and shifting sentiment drive Canadians to Mexico and beyond—despite Vegas treating the loonie like a dollar and the U.S. pouring cash into ads and events to win them back. Stats show fewer overnight stays, even with World Cup boosts, while Florida and California brace for another winter dip. One exec admits his family now chooses Mexico over San Diego; another says she feels unwelcome enough to avoid U.S. layovers. The U.S. tourism board’s first-ever trip to Canada this fall? A desperate bid to rebuild trust—and maybe just maybe, lure travelers back before it’s too late. Listen in comfort: Get a discount on a Soli Pillow: http://solipillow.com/discount/dnn.
