Re 4: ICE has made it clear that no one is safe from arbitrary arrest and imprisonment, and Trump fired the air controllers. No one's flying to the U.S. if they can avoid it.

Canadians are operating less out of worries about ICE than other foreigners are, and more from disgust at DT's economic and geopolitical policies. I mean, they're all good reasons not to go, but in this case it's more like not visiting Israel.
