  • Airline travel between the U.S. and Canada has dropped by 70% compared to the same time last year, the result of dueling tariffs between the two countries and U.S. overtures to make Canada the 51st state.

The article from MSN, published on October 10, 2023, discusses a significant decline in air travel between the United States and Canada, reporting a 70% drop in passenger numbers. This decrease is attributed to several factors including the ongoing effects of the global health crisis, changes in travel restrictions, and shifts in travel behavior. The report highlights that while there has been a recovery in domestic air travel within both countries, international routes, particularly between these neighboring nations, have not rebounded as quickly. This downturn has economic implications for airlines, airports, and related industries, prompting discussions on how to revitalize this crucial travel corridor. The article also touches on the potential long-term impacts on cross-border relations and the tourism sectors of both countries.
