Trump is no stranger to tariffs. He

AP journalist Zeke Miller contributed to this report from Washington.VANCOUVER, British Columbia (AP) — Making the trip from Vancouver to Seattle to watch baseball’s Toronto Blue Jays play the Mariners has been a tradition for Peter Mulholland and his wife, but not this year.

Mulholland was already frustrated over U.S. President Donald Trump’son imported goods from Canada and talk about the country. The final straw came when Trump referred to Ukraine President Volodymyr Zelenskyy as a dictator.

“We were starting to get leery,” said the 69-year-old, semiretired Vancouver resident. “The tariffs he’s trying to do is going to hurt both countries, that’ll become evident eventually, but it’s going to hurt us more.”Mulholland is one of a growing number of Canadian who are choosing not to vacation in the U.S. this year.

McKenzie McMillan, a travel consultant with the Vancouver-based Travel Group, said some of his clients have canceled trips that were already booked.

February is usually a busy month for the retail travel agency which specializes in both corporate and premium leisure travel as Canadians make plans for spring break vacations.“Through that interaction, that ritual that we Mexicans own, we watch clients wondering if they’re grabbing the taco in a proper way,” Rodríguez said. “But we always tell them we just want them to feel at home.”

One of them is brushing the “milpa,” a textile that hangs from the terrace and was named after Mesoamerican fields where crops are grown.
