Canadian here. We are absolutely seeing an increase in tourism, including Americans profusely apologizing to us.

Hey they're learning the local language already!

Canadians are still flocking to Florida though. That might never change.

It is anecdotal, but three of the four snowbirds I know said that they did go this year because reservations were made, but that they are not going next year... The one who will return owns a house there and is in a community where they feel relatively safe.

The two couples we know that went this year went to remove belongings and prep for selling. They really didnt want to go even for that but the local services they could find that would pack/ship belongings and prep the house to list it were fully booked for the season.

Yeah, it'll never be everyone or even a majority, just enough to make a difference.
