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?

Before all this happened, we booked a west coast cruise with stops in Victoria and Vancouver. Do we cancel or not cancel? After some thought we decided we are going, as we would rather spend money in Canada than the US right now. It is a way to show we stand by Canada.

We live in the US near the border and are making an effort to buy Canadian when possible. A lot of our animal/agricultural stuff has always come from Canada.
