There does not seem to be an end for tensions between the United States and Canada.
Whether on the ice or by prices, the two countries disagree with each other, and the governor of Florida Ron Desantis joined the fray on Tuesday.
Desantis spoke in front of a crowd on Tuesday, when he boasted of more than 140 million tourists who visited Florida throughout 2024.

Florida governor said 3.3 million people came from Canada.
“It is not really a boycott in my book,” said Desantis, taking a separation from those of the country who threatened to boycott the United States in the midst of tensions.
He then brought sports there.
“Maybe they wanted to have an overview of what a winning hockey team from the Stanley Cup looks like.”
