The economies of Las Vegas, Miami, Reno and San Diego are bracing themselves for the hit now that Canada has announced a ban on Canadian 'snowbirds' and 'low-rolling' gamblers going south to spend their money in the USA.
A spokesperson explained:
Canadians have been propping up the economies of US cities for years with their hard-earned Canadian dollars.
But it's time for this to stop in response to Trump's tariffs and attempts to make Canada into the 51st state!
A spokesperson for the Sizzlers restaurant chain told FNN:
We may have to cancel our 'All you can eat for $9.99' buffet, which was a favorite among our Canadian visitors, and remove the dime fruit machines from our restaurants.
The loss of our Canadian guests is going to hit us hard.
