They aren’t simply boycotting. Visiting the US has become more difficult and potentially unsafe.
Listen i have voiced my opinion about Trump on the internet. Not even that harsh imho.
Why would i risk that blowing up in my face when i go to the US.
I still want to visit a few places in the US, but not right now , maybe in the future when common sense returns.
Tourist abandoning America has widespread economic harm throughout our nation. But worse than that, if the international financial markets abandoned investing in America’s debt, it will be devastating.
We are $39 trillion in debt and desperately need other nations to buy our debt. With a weaker US dollar, terrible trade tariffs and destabilized/erratic leadership in America, they are starting to look at other investments other than America. That would CRUSH our economy.
I’ve been to America and it’s great and I like most American people but it’s off my list of places to visit for the foreseeable future. There’s many other places in the world where they welcome foreign visitors and I will be going to the countries north and south of the USA in the next few years.
Can confirm I won’t be visiting the States for the foreseeable future. Good luck, yanks!
With these gas prices, Americans are boycotting America too.
I would say some of is a real boycott, but a lot of it is just fear. Foreigners, even if here legally, are not safe from the US government anymore.
My parents are in south Florida, Canadians are pretty much non-existent down here. The flagship brewery first canceled weekday lunch hours last year, now closed their 2nd location they opened 5 years ago. Such a booming economy, so much boom.
There are 77 million Nazis here. As tourist destinations go, I suggest „confined to your hotel“ as the superior alternative.
I feel like we’re past boycotting now, this is an active effort to avoid the US for personal safety reasons.
Why come to a country that may kidnap you and hold you in an ICE facility? They do it to their own citizens and there aren’t any mass protests.
Those who are from other countries would not be wise to travel to America right now. We have an out of control government agency called Department of Homeland Security and their brutal ICE agents who are under orders to brutalize, harass and take into custody anyone they feel like in order to make their quotas and collect bounty. For your own safety do not come to America now!
I will never return there.
I would say that it’s less of a principled boycott and more of a, “I don’t want to be strip-searched and detained for a week at the airport for having a Trump meme on my phone.”
As a Canadian, I can say I never plan to waste my money on a vacation/ a trip to the USA ever again… certainly not under the Trump regime but also not after unless the following US presidents put in a lot of effort and work to mend all the relationships with its “allies” they have offensively destructed & destroyed under Trump.
No crap. I live in one of the World Cup cities and no one is coming here. Hotels are normal prices and everyone who thought they were going to make a fortune renting their house on Airbnb got nothing.
Some boycott – more are worried about dealing with racist, xenophobic Americans, ending up in some concentration camp and/or getting deported and stranded in some 3rd country.
This is like calling refusing to walk through the dangerous part of the city at 1AM „boycotting“.
Honestly great job everyone. Let’s get it even lower; there’s a whole world out there for us to explore!
I’m surprised that it’s that little of a drop. Only 5.5% down.
I just left a sleepy seaside town where we’ve been for decades, and that depends on tourism for rentals and income.
It was a ghost town. The world voting with its feet and wallets will soon be apparent to the red hats (and unfortunately the rest of us) when we’re treated as pariahs, resulting in lost income and lost jobs.
Nice job America.
I can’t vote in the US, so I’m voting with my money.
Starve the beast
Traveling to Canada is cheaper, we have great food, great hikes, tons of festivals, moose and poutine.
Also we won’t throw you in a detention centre for obscure reasons and an undetermined duration.
Choose fun over fascism.
We’re all paying more because one country couldn’t keep their politics in check.
Why the hell would I want to give them more of my money?
Remember it’s not JUST the visitations, it’s the money they spend in the towns that RELY on their visitations.
Businesses will close, people will lose their homes, hunger will spread in those communities
But hey, we’re winning right?
Right?
US citizen here. Don’t come here, don’t buy here, don’t buy things made here, don’t do any business here. Continue to BOO when our national anthem is played. Treat us like the autocratic, authoritarian, populist, nationalist, fascist, and kakistocratic state that we are becoming. Our gov’t is full of billionaires & losers, and our populace is full of uninformed people who voted for this stupid f-ck of a „businessman.“ Most of us (want to avoid saying „Americans“) hate his treasonous a– and fully support the people & governments of Canada, Ukraine, Greenland, Panama, and the displaced peoples of Gaza. Finally, hold your breath for another 3 years when we hope to get „back to normal.“ 🙁 In the meantime, we’re going to protest our own gov’t like hell… look up and support the 50501 & Indivisible movements.
I wouldn’t even call it boycott, it’s primarily self preservation. Entering the US from another highly developed country instantly multiplies your changes to be shot, robbed, incarcerated without trial, sent to some foreign concentration camp, just being disappeared at the border, … by a lot.
Going there without need is just self-harm at this point. There’s enough interesting stuff in the rest of the world, why go to the Fascist States?
I, for one, won’t be visiting in the near future, that’s for sure.
I’m not in the mood to discuss my online history with border guards.
Is it boycotting if they’re afraid for their lives?
I don’t blame them for going elsewhere …
