N'Oh Canada - Why The Great White North Is Giving Up On Vegas
<p>After a year-and-a-half away from the studio, I'm jumping back behind the mic for a special, one-off bonus episode of <strong>Jeff Does Vegas!</strong></p><p> </p><p>If you’ve walked the Strip lately, you may have noticed a glaring lack of Canadian tourists. For decades, Canada has been Las Vegas's most reliable international ally, but over the last year, that pipeline has frozen almost completely solid.</p><p> </p><p>Let’s get one thing straight right off the top: I am not jumping on the clickbait "Vegas is dead" bandwagon. Vegas isn't dead. But the numbers don't lie, and the city is suffering a very real "death by a thousand cuts."</p><p> </p><p>Armed with hard data from the <a href="https://www.lvcva.com/" rel="nofollow">LVCVA,</a> <a href="https://www.harryreidairport.com/" rel="nofollow">Harry Reid International Airport,</a> <a href="https://www.statcan.gc.ca/en/subjects-start/travel_and_tourism" rel="nofollow">Stats Canada</a>, and international travel reports, I'm bringing the receipts to explain exactly why visitorship has plummeted. I'm busting the myth that Canadians are staying home just because of a weak dollar, and digging into the real reasons for the massive drop - from the fallout of unprecedented U.S. political rhetoric and border tariffs, to out-of-control Strip pricing, to insane nickel-and-diming of tourists, and the devastating reality of the "stealth layoffs" hitting the everyday hospitality workers who keep the city running.</p><br/><br/>Advertising Inquiries: <a href='https://redcircle.com/brands'>https://redcircle.com/brands</a><br/><br/>Privacy & Opt-Out: <a href='https://redcircle.com/privacy'>https://redcircle.com/privacy</a>
