Steep year-over-year drop in car and air travel solidifies steep economic losses for U.S. tourism this year.

        Exactly! As a US citizen, I urge everyone not to come to this shithole of a country.

        it will drop, once the planned in advanced vacations are over, we will probably see more effect around thanksgiving, and then even more by December.

          From a May 2025 StatsCan data report published in July, 63.9% of the 1.5M Canadian crossborder automobile trips were day-trips. That could be commuters for work in a bordering community, a gas fill up, grocery run, going to an event, a park, or museum kind of visit. So only 541k Canadians were camping or staying at hotels in the US that month, the majority of the rest were probably border town residents going back and forth, not doing too many tourist-y things.

Overview:

The community dedicated to boycotting the US until they stop fascism, restore full democracy and start following international law.

Americans have a moral obligation to resist Donald Trump and project 2025 at every turn.

America is a flawed democracy currently being ruled by oligarchs. Stop the backslide! Dont let America become the next Hungary.

America needs to challenge the court rulings of citizens united v. fec and shelby county v. holder, protect the media, implement independent district drawing, and the single transferable vote so they don’t end up having people stay home in life-changing elections because they cannot vote for their favourite candidate.
