The trade war isn’t the only thing keeping Canadians from visiting Las Vegas.
National pride is also a factor.
“How would you feel if another country said what your government has said about us? Canadians are proud, and I’ve never seen us come together like this before. Friends shouldn’t be treated like this,” wrote Rick from British Columbia, one of several Canadians who reached out to me following last week’s Indy Gaming about the slowdown in Las Vegas visitation from Canada.
Rick, who asked that his last name not be used, said President Donald Trump’s talk about the annexation of Canada is the primary reason he is giving up on his five annual trips to Las Vegas.
