How are trade tensions and government policies contributing to the "Buy Canadian" movement's impact?

This "Buy Canadian" movement, combining consumer boycotts and government policy, is causing substantial economic repercussions in the U.S. The drop in Canadian tourism is projected to result in over \$2.1 billion in spending losses and 14,000 job losses in the U.S. Conversely, shifting consumer spending in Canada could boost Canada's GDP by 1 percent and create 74,000 jobs if travel spending also shifts domestically.
