visiting Canada in June 2025
I hate to ask this question but, considering the current threat of tariffs, etc, how will Americans traveling to Canada be received?
I am sure that most Canadians realize that American tourists are not to blame for the current state of affairs.

Yes, we take our money there, their tourist industries depends on us. We are to blame actually because 75 million of us voted for Trump.
I suspect they will be delighted to have Americans supporting their economy.
Canadians are pretty nice people and I expect most will direct their annoyance at our government not individual visitors. That said, I wouldn't say anything or wear anything to indicate support for our current president without expecting you might get a negative reaction.
Do you plan or did you adhere to the recommendations on tipping to directors and drivers?
I always consider Tauck’s recommendations on gratuities as a baseline. I adjust accordingly—usually upwards—based on my experiences. It’s very much a personal choice.
The tourism industry does not care about politics, nor does this website. Having lived on the Canadian border I know that many Canadians do their shopping in the U.S. I don’t know why? (;-). Actually, my Toyota Highlander was built in Canada. They are also built in the U.S. How strange is that?
