Leopards Ate My Face

Taking a step away from the reasons this is happening, perhaps it's not a good idea to have a place that's so dependent on tourism money. Cities should be city first, travel destination second.

"We love you, we need you, we miss you." Said the abuser after you start to leave them...

Fuck off America. 🇨🇦’s not coming back. You’re too dumb to even know why. 🖕🖕🖕

Even if Trump was gone, and the damage was repaired, it's so fucking expensive there now.

The only reason I'd go now is if there's something there I can't realistically see/do otherwise, or if the flights are so much cheaper to get there (and flights there can be cheap) that it makes up the cost of potentially seeing / doing that something elsewhere.

Otherwise, I've been there enough now, I don't need to go again.

From what I've been reading here, sounds a lot that they activelly brought in multiple leopards: an anti-foreigner out of control Fascist regime and very high prices.

That's like commiting suicide with both barrels of a two barrel shotgun.

“International travel is way down. People are not coming to the United States,” Berkley said last month. “’

I guess international travelers don't like being assaulted by Trump's Gestapo and disappeared into a gulag. Who knew?

Lol get fucked. Sent with love from Canada.

Sorry, but your federal government snatches people off the streets and sends them to concentration camps. We know of at least one Canadian citizen that was kidnapped by ICE, who then died in their custody.

This is in addition to your president threatening to annex us, and starting a trade war for no discernible reason.

No, I will not be visiting. A regime change won't help either.

It will never go back to the way things were, and that's on you collectively.

Good keep it up.

cry me a river

Imagine treating your friends like garbage and then being surprised when they don't wanna hang out anymore. My country literally threatened to invade both of our closest neighbors and friends and are now shocked that they hate us. Americans are the neighbor that constantly blasts music with their windows open and steals everyone's shit and then bitches when they don't get invited to neighborhood parties. The man-child of the Americas.

Didn't they vote for trump?

We need you...r money!! And we miss you...r money!!

From Canada with love: fuck you

I'm not Canadian but I'd still like to say go fuck yourself, Vegas mayor

Je ne suis pas Canadien mais quand-même j'aimerais dire va te faire foutre, maire de végas

Have the day Nevada voted for.

Isnt Vegas a conservative shit hole? As a Canadian fuck off. I saw that bald maga prick from pawn stars complaining about the lack of tourism, well you voted for this shit

Gee...

Wonder why people wouldn't think Vegas is safe...

Mayor Shelley Berkley reiterated Thursday that Las Vegas is not a sanctuary city, one day after House Republicans grilled four Democratic mayors and accused them of impeding federal immigration enforcement.

"The city of Las Vegas is not a sanctuary city,” Berkley said in response to a question during a bimonthly press conference.“We follow federal law, and we will do everything that we are supposed to under the law in order to comply with it.”

Like, she acts like people can't just look up what she was saying six months ago...

“We have a responsibility, if someone comes into the municipal jail, to notify ICE, and then it’s their responsibility to take it from there,” Berkley said. “As long as the sheriff is comfortable with that and is using the resources he has to do the job that the city of Las Vegas and the county has tasked him with, then I’m very comfortable with that.”

Why risk going to Vegas when a drunk and disordly could cause you to be held by ICE for months? Even if you legally crossed the border, ICE is detaining actual US citizens too.

Anyone with shitty enough risk management for that to seem like a safe bet, either isn't a gambler or already lost all their money on other stupid bets.

Most of the comments are talking about ICE and Canadians disliking the current American regime, which is true. But also Vegas isn't fun anymore. It's so overpriced for what it is. The ruthless corporate nickel and diming exploitation has ruined Vegas as a destination.

If the mayor of Las Vegas wants people to visit, instead of begging Canadians to come back, try telling MGM and Caesars to entice visitors with some deals and value for their money.

Pls respond

If the strip is so desperate for business, then where are the $35/night rooms?

Was going to go with the girlfriend last month, but after seeing the room prices, we decided to save a ton of money and go to San Diego instead.

If you want people to go to the strip again, bring back the deals you used to run all the time before COVID. Otherwise I don't believe you when you say you're desperate for tourists.

Fuck Vegas. You get what you voted for, morons.

This video answers the "why" perfectly.

tl;dw: everything more expensive, bullshit fees, less quality

Also, in my personal opinion, the current political climate doesn't help to draw in international tourists.

So much of Nevada is a handful of mobbed up white nationalists and ultra-conservative Zionists profiteering off the sweet and tears of a migrant Latino working class. The city is a hive of scum and villainy kept afloat by the hard work of the large, active, and occasionally quite radical labor left.

If it wasn't fully immersed in US military bases and California Techie Fascists, it could be ground zero for a full blown socialist movement. Instead, it's just a pit where natural resources go to burn, so that a few dozen oligarchs can be billionaires and a few million service sector workers can enjoy above average wages.

Maybe we just push the whole thing off the Hoover Dam already.
