It was a record-breaking summer for the Canadian tourism industry.

New data from the Crown corporation promoting Canadian travel shows that the tourism sector generated nearly $60 billion from May to August, marking a 6 percent increase year-over-year.

Canadians avoided travelling to the U.S. and chose to explore their own country instead. And the numbers also indicate that both Canadians and foreigners are losing interest in U.S. travel.

Global’s Touria Izri reports on the travel surge and highlights the region that experienced the biggest boost.
