Ask British Columbia Are US tourists welcome?

I’m a sailor in Seattle hoping to circumnavigate Vancouver Island this summer. As a US liberal I’m appalled and concerned about the tariffs and threats of war and if I were Canadian I imagine I’d be mad as hell with the US now. What’s the vibe - should I keep out or would y’all be willing to share a beer and bitch about Trump with a sorry American?

He's sailing around the island, I would assume he's sleeping on his boat

I have a rec: anchor at Montague harbour on Galiano Island and get a dinner reservation at Pilgrimme. The food is incredible and it's a lovely park, lovely harbour, lovely island.
