The little town of Sumas WA next to Abbotsford BC was basically killed last time Trump was in office. That was a popular crossing for Canadians going to the US to pick up groceries and packages from post boxes. There was a large grocery store that had been there 50 years. Canadian's stopped crossing and they went under about a year into Trump's first term.
I'm sure the Biden years brought it back a little, but I assume it's a ghost town by now.
