Janelle D. James reports:

In 2025, Michigan saw passenger vehicle visits from Canada drop to about 8.3 million from nearly 10 million in 2024, a nearly 16% decline, according to the latest U.S. Customs and Border Protection data. 

Some Canadian officials have urged residents to shop local and “not travel to the US,” including former Prime Minister Justin Trudeau, who last summer encouraged Canadians to “choose Canada” for their vacations.
