(MENAFN) The volume of Canadian-resident return trips from the United States saw a significant drop in July, according to Statistics Canada’s latest data released Monday.

Automobile return trips by Canadians crossing from the U.S. fell dramatically to 1.7 million in July, representing a 36.9% decrease compared to the same month in 2024. This marks the seventh straight month of year-over-year declines in cross-border car travel.

Air travel by Canadian residents returning from the U.S. also took a hit, with trips down 25.8% in July compared to last year, the agency reported.

The Canadian government has actively promoted domestic shopping and travel since the onset of the trade conflict with the United States. As part of these efforts, the nation launched the Canada Strong Pass summer initiative, running from June 20 through September 2, which offers free or discounted access to some of the country’s most renowned attractions.
