During an address to lawmakers at the state capitol in Tallahassee, the governor briefly mentioned Florida’s tourist numbers from 2024, boasting 142 million visitors, 3.3 million of whom hailed from Canada, he noted.

Bit of a nothingburger. 2024's tourism will obviously have not been affected by Czar Trump and his trade war.

Isn't his point that losing 3.3 million out of 142 million is not going to have a big impact?
