    Today marks an important milestone for Destination Canada and the Canadian tourism industry as we launched our new tourism strategy, 'A World of Opportunity' at Rendez-vous Canada. We have set a bold goal: to propel Canada into the ranks of the top 7 global destinations by 2030. Achieving this will require us to increase Canada’s global competitiveness and bring in up to $160 billion in annual revenue by 2030.

    En juin 2024, le Canada a accueilli 2,4 millions de visiteurs pour une nuit ou plus, soit 7 % de plus qu’en juin 2023. Les arrivées pour le premier semestre de 2024 atteignent donc maintenant 8,3 millions, une hausse de 12 % par rapport à la même période l’an dernier. La croissance modérée en juin s’explique par un ralentissement observé du côté de certains marchés européens, ainsi que par la baisse continue des arrivées en provenance du Mexique depuis l’entrée en vigueur de nouvelles exigences en matière de visa.

    Canada welcomed 2.4 million overnight visitors in June 2024, up 7% compared to June 2023. This brought year-to-date arrivals for the first half of 2024 up to 8.3 million, up 12% over the same period last year. The slightly subdued growth this month comes amidst a slowdown from some European markets, in addition to the ongoing decline from Mexico following the introduction of new visa requirements.

    Plus tôt ce mois-ci, un segment de Destination Canada sur les expériences d’automne au Canada a capté l’attention de 1,4 M de téléspectateurs américains de l’émission CBS Mornings. Ce reportage, mettant en vedette différentes régions du Canada, était animé par Oneika Raymond et présentait l’automne comme un moment idéal pour profiter du grand air canadien. On y trouvait d’ailleurs des clins d’œil à certains partenaires de Destination Canada d’un océan à l’autre.
