A new research tool that tracks cell phone activity has found a 42% drop in visitors from Canada to big metropolitan areas in the US that is much higher than official border-crossing data, suggesting Canadians during the second Trump administration are avoiding US cities in particular.
Researchers from the University of Toronto said the tool showed a “year-over-year median decline of approximately 42% in Canadian visits to US metropolitan areas – significantly higher than official border-crossing data, which showed a roughly 25% decline”.
I mean, the managers at my company are often traveling back and forth from our CAN-US shop an offices. Some people simply don’t have a choice and don’t believe they’ll run into issues.
I got asked to go train folks in the US shop right after ICE started cracking down, I refused and told HR if that’s a requirement of my new position I’d rather go back to what I was doing previously.
