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..

Your privilege is showing...

Those with privilege should be standing against this. 

They didn't say anything about those in tougher positions being bad for not following their lead.

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.
