Many Canadians are avoiding travel to the United States this year due to tense political relations and US tariffs on Canadian goods. Since the beginning of 2025, travel from Canada to the US has decreased by 23%, causing an estimated $4 billion loss for the US economy.
Instead, Canadians are exploring their own country or traveling to other international destinations. Statistics Canada reports that domestic travel has increased in 2025, as have trips to Mexico, Portugal, the Bahamas, and Belize.
Air Canada is adding more flights to Europe, the Caribbean, Central, and South America. The new routes make it easier for Canadians to travel without passing through the US and support tourism in other destinations.
US regions that depend on Canadian visitors are feeling the impact. Travel experts say this trend may continue, encouraging Canadians to explore their own country and diversify their international travel.
