Steve Hill admitted that Las Vegas might not be able to convince Canadian visitors who have stayed away from the Strip — as well as much of the U.S. — to return this year.
Canadians began a travel boycott to America earlier this year after President Donald Trump suggested annexing Canada and making it the “51st state of the U.S.”
“A portion of our friends in Canada are not happy with us right now,” said Hill, CEO of the LVCVA, at a media briefing Friday. “We want them to come back, but we understand they may not be ready to do that.”
