Canadians Are Traveling Less to the U.S.

In a surprising trend, recent data shows a significant decline in the number of Canadians traveling to the United States. Statistics Canada revealed that March marked the third consecutive month of year-over-year decreases in cross-border travel.

The figures are staggering: 1.5 million Canadians returned home by car from the U.S. in March 2023, reflecting a staggering 31.9% drop from the same month last year. Additionally, air travel is also feeling the pinch, with a 13.5% decline in flights to the U.S., totaling around 719,500 trips.
