Yeah, probably. StatsCan reports:
Trips abroad by Canadian residents continue to decrease Canadian residents returned from 4.2 million trips abroad in August, down 21.5% compared with August 2024.
Canadian-resident return trips from the United States by automobile declined by 32.6% to 2.2 million in August 2025. Of these trips, 57.6% were same-day trips.
In August, the number of Canadian-resident return trips by air from the United States (608,800) decreased by 17.0% compared with the same month a year earlier. Meanwhile, Canadian-resident return trips by air from overseas countries (1.2 million) increased 9.1% compared with August 2024.
Would be interesting to see the number who left and did not return. I understand that number has been growing steadily over the past decade, especially for the top 10% of earners.

We drove the US in May and I have to admit the border was an absolute breeze both ways. I doubt it keeps up though. I mean the elbows up thing lasted all of two months.
