Canadians flock to Cuba

Canadian tourist are flocking to Cuban beaches in record numbers and helping Cuba's tourist trade end a two-year slump. A surge in Canadian

tourism led to unprecedented tourism. In addition prospects for hotels during the summer improved last week, when new President Raul Castro lifted a ban on Cubans staying at resort hotels formerly reserved for foreigners only. American tourists are still barred by US law from visiting the country.



My opinion

I'm glad Cuba is able to reactivate their economy by improving tourism, one of their major sources of income. It's understandable that Canadians tourist choose the Caribbean island for holidays given their strong dollar.
