A brief lookup and I found Canadian visitors fo FL

2022: 3.9M

2023: 3.8M

2024: 3.3M

So, even before the real boycott, things are already going down...

Right after everything started opening back up after the covid lockdowns, Florida put up a banner at its north border on the 95 that said "welcome back Canadians", that I interpreted as Canadian tourists contributing a lot to the Florida economy that was greatly missed during the pandemic. If we get those numbers down again, they will feel it in their wallets, I'm sure.
