They're not coming, and what rational person could blame them.

Suddenly remembered how some travelers wore Canadian patches on their packs because advertising you are from the USA was socially unacceptable. Is this still a thing or will it be again?

Canadians are selling their properties in Florida en masse and not even returning to collect belongings. While the governor jokes about the fact that they’re no longer even visiting, business is taking a hit. So good luck, NJ. They’re not coming. They’re serious.

We met a group of Canadians by the pool in Palm Springs. They have been coming for years. They told us that they will not be coming back next year, likely never again. Largely do to the political climate. Also, poor exchange rates.

It should be noted from the article that the hotel proprietor spoken to us a Trump supporter as is a majority of Cape May County
