Fewer Canadians are returning to their winter residences in Arizona and Florida in 2025, creating a significant economic ripple across two of the most tourism-dependent US states. What was once a steady flow of Canadian seasonal visitors has sharply declined due to a combination of rising political tensions, new travel restrictions, and a wave of nationalistic sentiment in Canada. With advance airline bookings plummeting and long-term stays being reconsidered or cancelled altogether, local economies that rely on Canadian spending—particularly in hospitality, real estate, and retail—are beginning to feel the financial strain.
Canada’s Snowbirds Are Heading Home—And Many May Never Return
As spring temperatures rise across Arizona and Florida, the annual migration of Canadian snowbirds is underway. However, this year’s return north marks more than just the end of winter—it may signify a major shift in long-standing travel and economic patterns.

Canadians' desire to visit the U.S. is absolutely tanking, new data suggests.
Why it matters: President Trump's tariffs and insistence that Canada should become the 51st American state is fueling a remarkable rally-round-the-flag effect.
Canadian patriotism is skyrocketing alongside disdain for all things American throughout the Great White North.
It especially matters in tourism-dependent Florida, which is among the top U.S. destinations for Canadian travelers.
The big picture: Advance bookings for Canada-U.S. flights in April-September are down over 70% compared to this time last year, per aviation data firm OAG.
"This sharp drop suggests that travelers are holding off on making reservations, likely due to ongoing uncertainty surrounding the broader trade dispute," writes OAG chief analyst John Grant.
Airlines are also reducing transborder capacity — a strong signal that they, too, are seeing (or at least predicting) less demand.
Threat level: Just a 10% drop in Canadian travel could lead to $2.1 billion in lost spending and 14,000 jobs cut, per the U.S. Travel Association.
Zoom in: Carriers with flights between Tampa International Airport and Canadian cities cut seat capacity by 12% this month from what officials projected in January, the Tampa Bay Times reported this week.
Miami International Airport and Fort Lauderdale-Hollywood International had even bigger reductions, per the Times.
What they're saying: "Americans might not realize the depth and intensity of the anger up here," said Toronto resident Larry Milson, one of many Canadians who wrote to Times columnist Graham Brink back in February.
"I love Dunedin, but I'm not going there this year and maybe never again."

If Canada wants to find a trading partner to replace the US they may want to start with themselves. There is no free trade between the provinces. There's anywhere from a 7-20 percent tariff been the goods that travel between the provinces.Adversity temporarily visits a strong man but stays with the weak for a lifetime.Comment
