What a shitty thing to do on the USA's birthday, as if it will do any help to the USA's already ravaged tourism industry. It's sad since compared to the rest of the functioning world, the National Park System is the ONLY good thing going for the USA. And yet Trump wants to jeopardize that!

Dear rest of the world, please visit North America but definitely consider changing your US itineraries to Canada so you won't directly give any money to Trump's USA or fear being jailed if something is wrong with your paperwork.

The skywalk from the picture is build with glass from Germany.

Lol, sure Donnie, raise the price of the thing I wasn't going to buy anyway.

Stop visiting the US!

I suspect that declining attendance at public parks will be used as justification to fund them less, then shut them down, then sell off the land to resource exploiters.

[–] Charapaso@lemmy.world 14 points 1 day ago

It's exactly like the plan with Medicaid: burdensome bullshit paperwork makes people either just stop trying, or resent the government...making it far easier to reduce the capability of already meager social programs even further.

Haven’t they already allowed mineral extraction in national parks?

"Mr. Trump, we're losing money because Canadian tourism is massively down. What should we do?"

"Let's make coming to the US even less attractive. That'll surely help"

Well, Americans picked an expert at bankruptcy, so he is doing what he is best at.

[–] Diplomjodler3@lemmy.world 6 points 1 day ago

Americans picked a Russian intelligence asset tasked with destroying their country. Future generations will have a hard time understanding any of this.

Bankrupt america to sell it to the highest bidder.

[–] CircaV@lemmy.ca 24 points 1 day ago

US is such a fail. Cut down your national forests and charge more $ to tourists, if they even want to come cause Murican assclowns are detaining and deporting people randomly at the border for a meme on a phone.

And Canada will make our national parks free.

Gargle balls USA.

[–] espentan@lemmy.world 33 points 1 day ago (2 children)

That really surprised me on my first visit to a US national park, that you have to pay. Oh, you want to see nature? Show me the money!

[–] Auli@lemmy.ca 2 points 17 hours ago

Why Canada is the same.

[–] Sunshine@lemmy.ca 33 points 1 day ago

We couldn’t possibly tax the rich to pay for the upkeep.

[–] Reannlegge@lemmy.ca 11 points 1 day ago

There doesn’t even need to be anything wrong with your paperwork, the proud boys may just not like you.

[–] Sunshine@lemmy.ca 13 points 1 day ago

Watch Trump decimate the trees and wildlife further tarnishing the parks.

[–] homesweethomeMrL@lemmy.world 6 points 1 day ago

You got a landfill problem? Well the grand canyon’s just a giant hole, isn’t it? Idea!

[–] Archangel1313@lemmy.ca -2 points 1 day ago (2 children)

Hold on. Since when has Canada ever charged money to visit National Parks? There are some tourist locations that charge admission...but not National Parks.

[–] BCsven@lemmy.ca 2 points 18 hours ago* (last edited 17 hours ago)

Some Provinces it is free, like we don't pay in BC. Edit sorry I was thinkig Provincial. National has a pass for the year $150 or so, but this year June through September it is free

Pretty sure I remember paying to get into Banff.

[–] phx@lemmy.ca 5 points 1 day ago

Banff definitely. There's a bunch of booths as you enter where you need to get a pass for your vehicle (or did in previous years anyhow).

[–] golden_zealot@lemmy.ml 4 points 1 day ago (1 children)

Yea you need a Kananaskis pass to go over there.

[–] Albbi@lemmy.ca 5 points 1 day ago

Kananaskis is a provincial park and Banff is a national park. You need a Kananaskis pass for Kananaskis and a National Park Pass for Banff.
