The Ontario government also canceled a $100 million contract with Elon Musk\u2019s Starlink. Tourism from Canada to the US has dropped by 23%.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li><strong>Denmark &amp; Sweden<\/strong>: Boycott movements with over 70,000 members are pushing consumers to buy European alternatives.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li><strong>France<\/strong>: The campaign \u201cBOYCOTT USA: Buy French and European!\u201d is promoting local products over US imports.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><strong>Impact on Tesla and Other US Brands<\/strong><\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p>Tesla sales in Europe declined 45% in January, with analysts attributing the drop to Musk\u2019s close association with Trump.
