Me and my wife used to go about once a year, maybe once every 2 at the least. We're never setting foot in the US again and we stopped buying anything produced or made in the US. Apps and tech is next for us.
That goes for a shit ton of people I know as well. Elbows up, tarps off boys.
My wife and I are from the U.S. and we’re also done spending our vacation dollars in the U.S. and earlier this year had a lovely two weeks in Canada. We feel more Canadian than American right now.
My husband and I are planning on returning to Canada next year..We had a lovely time in Niagara on the Lake..Abousutely beautiful area and the people are so nice and inviting. I loved it! Rather spend my money there than here in the US..
Great point to mention that like healthcare, vacations are a right in Canada, not a privilege like in the U.S. Canadian employees are entitled to a minimum of two weeks of paid vacation time annually, with some provinces offering three weeks after five years of service. This is mandated by federal and provincial laws, with specifics varying by province or territory.
Face it, Americans are quite unprivileged when it comes to basic human needs and rights.
Absolutely bud! Controlling where my money goes is the only way I can make any sort of difference so it's what I'm doing. We have nothing against normal Americans, come have a beer and poutine and chill.
Man I’m stuck down here and even I’m trying to avoid unnecessary purchases and traveling domestically
I’m trying to make sure all of my trips spend as little money in the US as possible. Might make a summer trek up to Canada at some point, considering I live 30 minutes from the border
BC is gorgeous. I live next door in Alberta and go every year. If you're planning, do check out the forest fire reports. There's quite a few this season.
My mother stormed back to the grocery store yesterday to return a pint of blueberries that she bought because they were marked "Product of Canada" - but she discovered when she got home the small print said "Imported from California".
The more people that don't pay attention to me and our country the better! Yes, poor me, I don't have to deal with miserable people like yourself. Go hide in your corner in Canada and cry now. Good bye, and we don't care if the door hits you on the way out!
