Travel is more than movement—it’s connection.

Across continents, cultures, and languages, travel reminds us of what we share: curiosity, kindness, and the desire to explore. It breaks down barriers, opens minds, and inspires us to see the world—and each other—differently.

Every journey sparks understanding. Every destination teaches us something new. Every adventure reminds us that we are more alike than we are different.

Travel isn’t just a getaway—it’s a force for good. A bridge between people. A celebration of our shared humanity.

The Association of Canadian Travel Agencies and Travel Advisors (ACTA) strongly condemns the sweeping tariffs imposed by the United States on Canadian goods.

While travel agencies and advisors may not be directly targeted, the economic consequences will be severe—higher costs for businesses, weaker consumer confidence, and reduced travel spending.

Canada has long been one of the United States’s closest allies and most reliable trading partners. These tariffs harm not only Canadian businesses but also American consumers and companies that rely on seamless trade with Canada. History has proven that protectionist policies do not strengthen economies; they weaken them.

We urge the U.S. government to immediately reverse these tariffs on Canada and other key allies. In the meantime, we call on the Canadian government to take decisive action to support travel agencies and travel advisors as they navigate the economic turbulence these policies will create.

Travel is an essential economic driver, and policies that undermine confidence in our markets threaten the livelihoods of thousands of Canadian travel professionals. The time to act is now.

Our thoughts and prayers are with those who tragically lost their lives in last night’s accident near Washington. We are also thinking of their families, loved ones, and the brave first responders who rushed to help.

In moments like these, we are reminded of the fragility of life and the strength of community.

We’re excited to share an invitation to help shape the future of Canada’s travel industry by joining one of two new committees launching in 2025: the Independent Travel Advisor (ITA) Committee and the Diversity, Equity & Inclusion (DEI) Committee.

If you’re an independent travel advisor, the ITA Committee is a fantastic opportunity to address the unique challenges and opportunities we face.

By joining, we can collaborate on initiatives such as advocacy and professional development programs, ensuring our voices influence industry policies and practices.

For those passionate about inclusivity, the DEI Committee offers a chance to help create a more inclusive travel industry. Together, we’ll develop strategies to attract diverse talent, enhance cultural competency in travel services, and ensure the industry serves all Canadians effectively. This committee works closely with all ACTA initiatives to embed DEI principles throughout the organization.
