I wanted to visit before the collapse, but it didn’t work out for multiple reasons.
Now I’m doubly sad that I didn’t go. Because if I would indeed decide to go now, it would be a coin toss if a random typo in some papers would land me in a gulag
Well people don’t want to be sold into slavery to El Salvador. Big surprise!
Those charts are soon going to look a lot worse. I know of many people who had already paid for their vacation before the tariffs were announced, so they went anyway. New bookings for flights from Canada to the U.S. are down over 70%.
Yeah I think so too.
People have always talked about a long weekend in New York or a cruise from Miami.
Now it’s just dead. No mention of the US at all, other than the blithering baboon.Would not want to be a trans atlantic airliner this sunmer
At this point, I wouldn’t be surprised if you are trans-atlantic, their DEI policy mistakes this for something LGBT-related and you face automatic detention.
I don’t blame any non-American for staying out of the insanity soup going on here.
Even as a middle age, “white privilege” guy, I’m concerned about traveling outside the U.S. and coming back through immigration. I’m liberal, protester, and strongly anti-Maga on the socials.
Only 20 to 30%?
I won’t set foot on US soil again as long as Trump or any other conservative is running this country.
It’s not even just about how you get shafted at the border nowadays. I simply don’t want to visit a country that is ruled by misanthropic fascists.
And I think that many people will probably feel the same way.
Yep. For the same reason I wouldn’t visit Russia, Turkey, and the likes.
Even though I’d really like to aside from the regimes.
Russia is full of cool architecture and art.
But fuck the current (last 25 years) regime with a rusty crowbar. I’m not stepping a single foot in there.
i really hope the majority of countries boycott the 2028 games and don’t show up in la.
Nazi Germany, China and Russia/Soviet Union set a rather bad precedent for this.
Attendance will double you say?
Yeah, I bet barely anyone will boycott it.
Not even CA can stop the ICE from harassing people at airports.
I don’t blame anyone, there is no need to personally see the circus that is our country currently. Watch the circus from stands unless you want to be a part of it.
Yeah, I don’t want to get detained for a week and sent to el salvador.
Marketing opportunity - TWO countries for the price of ONE!!!
I guess that pineapple they are fucking you with has a silver lining
Disneyland tickets are now affordable?
no shit, dont want to have some border police going through my phone and putting me on detention only to deport me back later
If you’re lucky you’ll be deported back to your own country.
I don’t blame a single person for not wanting to tour the US ATM.
I’m worried of traveling outside of the US because that means I have to come back in through the borders again and be subjected to invasive searches
Land of the free
Ez, just skip the part were you travel back.
I heard something about you can go to EU and Australia for 180 days visa free with a us passport (might not be true, i don’t know) so if you have enough money / a job you can do as a digital nomad you could technically move back and forth and you’d still live in a western country. Although I you could afford that I guess you can buy some kind of golden visa somewhere and just migrate there.
You can look up and compare this kind of thing on this handy website: United States of America Tableau de bord | Passport Index 2025 https://www.passportindex.org/passport/united-states-of-america/
I feel bad for the Olympic organizers. Good luck luring tourists to the Olympics.
Olympics are probably the worst organization out there.
Admittedly surprised. I thought it would be like the Bush years when they proclaimed their distaste of the US while still dreaming about living/visiting places like New York and LA.
My country is vast. My country is huge. My country is beautiful and welcoming too. My country won’t jail you because of your thoughts. My country is Canada 🇨🇦 and we have amazing vacationing spots.
Your country encourages people to kill themselves over minor treatable diseases they can’t pay for.
encourages people to kill themselves
Encourages? Can you cite a reputable source?
Is the Guardian reputable enough? Because it is true that poverty is a terminal illness, but society is the cause of it!
https://www.theguardian.com/world/2022/may/11/canada-cases-right-to-die-laws
I would qualify under this stupid shit
And people should go there ASAP, as pretty soon they’ll probably have to worry about some Belarus-style shenanigans happening as their flight transits US airspace.
I think you can actually get sent to jail in Canada for a telling a bad joke, but I could be wrong and that’s not at all the point. You’re right, Canada’s vastness and diversity of the people and places is a true blessing.
Mike Ward, a Quebec comedian, was ordered to pay a fine of $42,000 for jokes about Jeremy Gabriel, a disabled singer, after a human rights tribunal ruling. Ward appealed and eventually won his case in the Supreme Court, which ruled that his jokes did not breach Quebec’s Charter of Human Rights and Freedoms. Despite the financial penalties, Ward was not imprisoned.
Ok, not jail.
Well one’s freedom ends when it infringes on another’s
What freedoms are infringed by joke telling?
Plus, mention you came instead of going to the US and get treated like royalty.
