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.

If travel dropped by an order of magnitude, and 3.9 million Canadians traveled to the USA, that's 200 people in 3,900,000, a bit less than 1 in 19,000. On a national scale that's obviously a concerning number, but on an individual scale, I'm not sure personal exposure to that risk will change all that many people's decisions. Those who it does change likely perceive themselves at higher risk than the average Canadian.

That's assuming it's a good estimate, but I suspect from numbers I've seen on flight traffic drops, this is an overestimate; likely more Canadians traveled to the USA, and so the individual risk is even lower.
