Ski resorts in the United States are seeing a decline in visits from Canadian skiers this winter as many boycott U.S. tourism to show opposition to President Donald Trump’s threats to impose tariffs and make Canada the 51st state, according to recent reports.
Steve Wright, the president and general manager of Jay Peak Resort – one of the largest ski resorts in Vermont- told members of Congress they were anticipating large declines in Canadian visits after he noticed fewer northern neighbors were renewing their season passes.
