Living in Europe, I've been boycotting the US as a tourist destination since the authoritarian overreach that followed 9/11 with things like the Patriot Act, and have gone to Canada instead (both coasts) in the meanwhile and highly recommend it.

Boycott US

Overview:
The community dedicated to boycotting the US until they stop fascism, restore full democracy and start following international law.
Americans have a moral obligation to resist Donald Trump and project 2025 at every turn.
America is a flawed democracy currently being ruled by oligarchs. Stop the backslide! Dont let America become the next Hungary.
America needs to challenge the court rulings of citizens united v. fec and shelby county v. holder, protect the media, implement independent district drawing, and the single transferable vote so they don't end up having people stay home in life-changing elections because they cannot vote for their favourite candidate.

Canada has more than 2 coasts, we have a third coast up north!
Well, there's this short one from south Alaska down to the rest of the US on the western side of Canada and this really long one from northern Alaska all the way around the northern part of Canada and then down the eastern side of Canada to the US. 😜
The Atlantic Coast, the Arctic Coast, and the Pacific Coast. They all have their differences but are all beautiful. If you are not to far north you can hang out with all the Chinese tourists who believe that it is good luck to conceive children under the Northern Lights. But if you want to see real beautiful northern lights that dance you need to go further south like some grid road in the country side in Saskatchewan late at night.
And a fourth coast down south.
I live and own a business in PEI. It's a classic arcade that usually sees a bit of traffic from tourists.
I for one welcome this change.
