    Canadians boycotting travel to the U.S. doesn’t help, either.

      Yep. “Leisure spending waning” is a roundabout way of saying people are boycotting travel to the United States, and people that live here can barely afford anything anymore either.

      I disagree. I think it’s helping punish the USA, which is exactly what it deserves for threatening not only much of the world, but also Canada directly. It seems like the perfect response that they boycott Las Vegas, and the entire country and its products.

        I think you’ve misunderstood me. I’m Canadian, and I’m boycotting travel to the United States. I’m currently on vacation in Portugal, and I love it. I can’t wait to visit more non-US destinations.

          All good. Just thought the “doesn’t help” might mean you didn’t appreciate the boycott. Good work on your own boycott.

          Boycotts and a general strike by US citizens are the only things that might get through to the White House.

      Canadians are only 10% at best, Vegas was dying because they were tuned only for one Boomer demographic, and Boomers are dying.

      big money is now in nursing homes and funeral parlours.
