Canadians are doubling down on their American boycott after Trump's latest tariffs

Canadians recommitted to their boycott of American goods and travel. "Some people got a little lazy with it," one Canadian said.

Canadians are renewing their commitment to boycotting American goods and travel as tensions with the United States over trade escalate. The breakdown of negotiations has reignited the boycott, with many Canadians expressing anger towards the US. President Trump has threatened further tariffs, including on auto parts, while Canada has announced counter-tariffs.

Canadian Prime Minister Mark Carney proposed dollar-for-dollar counter-tariffs, and many Canadians are using social media to promote the boycott. The tariffs have sparked a wave of online activity, with Canadians using hashtags like #BoycottUSA and posting supportive infographics. While economic boycotts rarely impact the targeted businesses, this movement has reinvigorated anti-US sentiment in Canada, with some hoping it will reverse travel trends.
