FACTS DON'T CARE ABOUT YOUR BORDER: Why Canada-US Cross-Border Shopping Has Collapsed

Visit us at CanAmericanNews.com for daily updates!

Folks, we need to talk about what's happening at our northern border. Cross-border shopping between Canada and the United States has plummeted, and nobody in the mainstream media wants to tell you the REAL story. Let's break this down with pure logic and facts, shall we?

For DECADES, our neighbors to the north would flock to American soil for the superior goods, better prices, and frankly, the economic freedom that only American capitalism can provide. But this mutually beneficial exchange has collapsed, and it's not just about exchange rates, despite what the left-wing economists would have you believe.

Remember when Canadians used to line up at border crossings every weekend? Those days are GONE. And here's why that matters: It's a canary in the coal mine for our broader international relationships.

Let's Look at the FACTS

1. Yes, the exchange rate is a factor - The Canadian dollar has weakened against our superior US dollar. Basic economics, people. When it costs Canadians more loonies to buy American goods, they're going to think twice. But this is just the symptom, not the disease.

2. The left's "boycott America" movement - Let's be crystal clear: A significant portion of Canadians are now ACTIVELY avoiding American shopping as some kind of misguided political statement. They claim it's about tariffs and trade policy, but let's be honest—this is virtue signaling, plain and simple. American goods remain the best in the world, regardless of what the globalist elite want you to believe.

3. COVID policies destroyed normalcy - The pandemic lockdowns obliterated border traffic, and it never recovered. Many duty-free shops are still operating at 20-40% of pre-pandemic levels. This is the direct result of government overreach that the left refuses to acknowledge was a mistake.

4. The absurd "shop local" propaganda - Canadian officials have been pushing citizens to avoid American shopping under the guise of supporting local businesses. Make no mistake: this is economic protectionism dressed up as community spirit. In British Columbia, government calls to avoid US shopping had an immediate and DRAMATIC impact on border traffic.

What No One Else Will Tell You

Here's what the mainstream media WON'T tell you: This isn't just about shopping. This is about the deterioration of the longest undefended border in the world and a relationship that used to be special.

The reality is that Canadian consumers are being fed a steady diet of anti-American sentiment by their media and government. They're being told that crossing the border will result in harassment, that American products aren't worth the trouble, and that somehow shopping in America is an unpatriotic act.

Meanwhile, duty-free shops are closing, American border communities are suffering, and nobody in the mainstream media is connecting these dots.
