As we can see tourism is increasing tremendously in Asia, Africa & Europe but it is not the same in Canada. What are the reasons behind that ???

Plus alot of people associate the impression if we are so close to the US that we are as rude and anti-foreigner as they are.
There we almost 20 states that we try to pass laws that would have made english the offical language of the state.
Here in Canada we embrace our mulit-cultural mosaic, we don't judge you by you background or religous faith.
And as the one person said the governments promotion of the country is not strong, I to was in the Hospitality business, a chef with hotels, restaurants and resorts and travelled to all provinces and worked in 8, plus a stint in Jamaica.
Most Canadians are respected in other countrys for our good statis on the world stage, but still there is a bit of a misconseption we are more like American than we are.

Canada doesn't easily grant visas to their country. You have to prove with lots of documents and reason out that you will be back after your vacation. This could be a reason for international travelers to skip out on this beautiful country.

Poor advertising, lack of governmental cooperation on all levels. Tourism has never fully recoverd from 9/11 and SARS. Plus add in a strong Canadian dollar we are not as attractive as we once were.
