The Canadian boycott of US remains robust into early 2026, with no signs of easing despite diplomatic efforts and economic pressure. Data from Statistics Canada and US border authorities show a sustained 25-35% drop in Canadian land and air arrivals compared to pre-2025 levels, costing American businesses an estimated $7-9 billion in lost spending since mid-2025.
The boycott, initially sparked by President Trump’s tariffs on Canadian goods, annexation rhetoric, and perceived disrespect toward Canada, has evolved into a broad consumer movement. Surveys indicate over 60% of Canadians continue to avoid US destinations, with many redirecting trips to Mexico, Europe, the Caribbean, or domestic locations. Popular alternatives include Cuba, Costa Rica, and increased winter travel within Canada.=
Trump administration officials downplay the impact, with some calling it a “small blip” that will resolve once trade talks advance. However, industry groups and local leaders plead for de-escalation, warning of permanent shifts in travel habits.
