From the Canadian Tulip Festival in Ottawa to small towns that usually rely on the summer to boost business, Canada's tourism industry is suffering as the pandemic continues to limit domestic and international travel.

TORONTO -- For nearly seven decades, May has brought blooming tulips and hundreds of thousands of tourists to Canada's capital city.

All other activities and events have moved online, including a virtual walking tour of the gardens. But without tourists from other provinces flocking to see the tulips, roughly half of Ottawa’s hotels are empty or closed.More than 22 million people visited Canada last year, bringing a boost of more than $100 billon to the Canadian economy. But border closures and travel restrictions have many businesses and even municipalities fearing for the worst.

“We are just trying to think of any revenue stream that could help get us through this, including online sales,” owner John Campbell told CTV News.The Havelock Country Jamboree, a live country music festival, puts Havelock, Ontario, on the map.But not this year. On May 12, the jamboree was officially postponed until 2021.

Although provinces and territories have been taking their first steps towards a gradual re-opening, health officials are still stressing the dangers of growing complacent.

TD bank put vulnerable Canadians at risk of bank fraud and refused to fix their anti-fraud system. TD teller confirmed that funds from a certified check had reached and deposited in my account, which I later found not true at all. I was tricked to send money to the scammer.

What an insane 2020.

The best part is Canada & Canadians don’t give a shit! Because they’re happy enjoying CERB & EI

Sad to see the COVID-19 virus separate us from our friends, but we must be safe and do social distancing.

Cross-border business interests call for joint Canada, U.S. post-COVID effortA prominent cross-border lobby group wants Canada and the United States to join forces for an integrated North American approach to the new post-pandemic global economy. US doesn't want to listen to no one. At this point no discussion of the border being open needs to happen. No, we need to build a wall and make trump pay for it 😀 Just let's not make any rash decisions, at the moment, that require the use of 'good and fair' judgement.
