US-Canadian Border Cities hit Trump by Trump’s Commerce War

At the end of a waitress, Kristina Lampert is used to separate the recommendations in two stacks: Canadian money and American.

But there were weeks to do so.

One of the first places that can hold a bite after crossing the US-Canadian border between the restaurant, the restaurant, Ontario and Port Huron, Michigan, Port Huron.

The Blue Water Bridge connecting the United States and Canada is a complete look from the restaurant windows.

“Many people understand and say,” We are here for the look, “said Canadian canteen. “I haven’t heard that recently.”

US President Donald Trump immediately immediately immediately immediately immediately when the world’s countries have begun to apply tariffs and reduce the number of Canadian countries.

Border crossings between the United States and Canada, according to CBP data, Trump tariffs are less than 17% since it began to bring tariffs.

According to Canada, car trips to the United States are about 32% less than in March 2024.

Like many cities that have a dot along the border 5.525 miles (8,891 km), the port Huron and the Sarnian economy depend on each other. Port Huron is a city that produces less than 30,000 less than 30,000 offering guests who offer a one-day opportunity for visitors.

A sarnia resident of a day where there is little traffic can pass the border and be in Michigan in a few minutes.

Many of these cities, Covid-19 pandemic conversion five years ago, and the first test with the first test when the local economy restarted the economy.

Now, Due to Trump’s commercial war, they see a second economic hit, and reduce the journey to the United States in response to travel relations between the two neighboring countries.

This felt place is the last place where Sarnia is in office, leaving Canada and get the goods before entering the United States. Perfumes and drink shelves are more full and the space has been a space since the tension begins.

Executive Director of the Border Release BARBARA Barett, said they saw a 32 dry-border officials in Canada from the return of Trump to the White House, said they saw 80% decrease. Most stores have seen 50-60% reduction in business.

“We rely on the journey at the border,” he said. “Our shops are often the columns of these communities; communities depend on them.”

Although the transition in Port Huron-Sarnia is the most better, the parking lot of the Sarnian duty is almost empty on Friday.

Tania Lee, who works in the store with his family, said he became the new Norman.

In the Easter week, in general, the Canadians say, as they use a pause to stop in a loved restaurant and go to a church service in Port Huron.

“We are suffering on the border for collateral damage,” said MS Lee about the second generation family.

MS LEE notes that people living in the border cities often cross the border several times a week. For example, like neighbors, there is a mailbox in a shipping facility in the port Huron where he visited regularly.

People on the blue water bridge feel an impact, Mayor Anita Ashford says.

Both residents and Canadians annoyed the growing tension between the nations.

According to the US Travel Association, the 10% of national and Canadian tourism will cost a 10% decrease in US 14,000 and $ 2.1 billion (1.56B).

Michigan is one of the places that see the best of this effect. According to tourism officials in 2023, in 2023, Canadians spent $ 238 million in visitors for visitors.

This money is important for border cities like Port Huron, says the mayor.

“I hope that the people in Washington will begin to understand what they do with the people.” “We are not responsible for this, the government has put us in this position and now we must solve it with respect.”

“We need each other,” he says.
