Canadians Loving the Aloha State

February 12th, 2008

As a kid, I had visited Canada and the two things I remember was that they said “eh?” and they have cold winters! So when I read in the paper that Canadian visitors to Hawaii were increasing, I wasn’t surprised.

As Hawaii’s fourth-largest market, Canadian travelers increased by 19.6% for December 2007. Marking the fifth consecutive month of increases of visitors from the land of the red maple leaf. Considering it is the middle of winter and the Canadian dollar is strong, it makes sense. If I were living somewhere covered by snow, I would want to come to Hawaii’s warm waters too. Come to think of it – I think that is why I am here too. It is easy to see why Canadians love the “Aloha State”. (Posted by CM)
