Canadian travel to USA still on decline.
https://globalnews.ca/news/11230990/canada-us-travel-may-2025/

USA plans to keep enhanced border inspections when travelling by vehicle.

BC liquor board continues….no import of ANY TYPE of USA liquor.

Some USA liquor may be sold at private stores until they run out of inventory.

We personally continue to buy products Canada first, any other country second, and USA last.

A bit tougher to not buy at a USA owned retailer since 90% are that way.
No more Starbucks
Lessened Tim Hortons
No more Rona or Home Depot as we have a Canada owned Timber Mart.

Canada learned a huge lesson to not be so dependent upon USA both ways. It’s unfortunate that one BIG ass h*le can p*ss off so many people in so many countries.

We need to expand our trading partners both ways. And when USA needs our steel or aluminum….we can say…..sorry we are out of stock!

There are other markets that we can buy vehicles from.

If the KING thinks he can hit us with tariffs and expect to come back to snivelling back him to negotiate a deal…let’s not…..let’s move on. He based his moves that we would be sucking up to him.

The Americans are going to have a rough go, getting rid of him at end of his term. Just watch.

Trump's popularity is still high and creeping up. Dis-immigration is his most popular action.

I don't think we should count that much on them dumping me-first policies. The US constitution suffers badly when compared to self-interest and other-loathing.

Let's try hard not to follow their lead, okay?
