Coronavirus has potential to dampen tourism/economy all over the globe; not just in Canada. US might be able to stave off impact for a while. But risk is high for adverse impact eventually.

Hopefully they can hold on until April! According to Trump it will be gone then, once the weather warms up!?!

Come to the US. According to Trump and Ross, it’s going to be a boom for our economy.

Not the finance minister! Oh that’s a colon

Going to affect far more than that in Canada, they are so unprepared.

Wait! is in Canada already?
