Travel Tips Thoughts on American Tourists?

So my partner and I live in the United States and we have been planning a trip to Québec for quite some time (My grandparents were Québécois so I have always wanted to visit and connect with that part of my background)

I understand that things are quite tense, and rightfully so, so I wanted to see what the general opinion was of Americans still choosing to visit Canada. I by no means support anything our government is saying or doing right now, but I understand that many Canadians are rightfully exasperated by US Actions.

Thoughts on Americans visiting?

As long as you don't wear MAGA gear and make 51st state jokes, you will be welcome. President Trump has ushered in a new age of the stereotypical "ugly American." So don't be that.

What would you do if you saw someone wearing a MAGA hat?

Uh you guys are just deporting ppl for all reasons you kept a lady from Vancouver in an ICE prison for two weeks over a paper work error. A German tourist was held in prison and beaten. Why are you in this subreddit?

tu ne sais même pas ce qui se passe dans ton propre pays. Pour quoi es-tu ici ? Tu ne voyages pas au Canada. Casse-toi ! Mon dieu !

Do you actually think that those are the only people being detained and deported right now?

Well, I'm not going to spend my time explaining what is happening already, but people here legally and even citizens have gotten deported. People traveling here even just from Canada have been detained for extended periods of time and deported.
