NextImg:Maine Inn Owner Reveals Damning Impact Of Trump’s Canada Rhetoric On His Business
LOADINGERROR LOADING

An inn owner in Old Orchard Beach, Maine, says President Donald Trump’s attacks on Canada have driven away the vast majority of his customers and left his business on the brink of closure.

Sterling Morse, owner of the family-run Point of View Inn, told CNN’s Randi Kaye in a segment that aired Thursday that “easily” 90% of his business has disappeared as tourists from Canada, who make up the bulk of his clientele, cancel stays as part of a growing trend protesting Trump.

They are “incredibly pissed off” with Trump’s rhetoric about turning Canada into the 51st state and his on-off imposition of tariffs on the country, said Morse.

And their anger “is incredibly justified,” he added.

Morse said French Canadian tourists, many of whom return year after year for the same room on the same dates, have largely pulled out this season.

There may soon be “no choice” but to close down or sell the inn, he added.
