Canadians increase travel to the U.S. for the first time in over a year

In June 2026, Canadians made 2.3 million trips to the U.S., a 5% increase from the previous year. This rise follows a year of declining travel due to political tensions and trade disputes. Car trips increased by 7.6%, while air travel continued to decline. Despite this uptick, many Canadians remain hesitant to travel to the U.S. due to ongoing political issues and unfavorable currency exchange rates.
