Anecdotal to be sure, but I do know that my car-based tourist visits to the USA are way down, due almost exclusively to the CBP experience.
It's the same with all my friends and family - We just stay in Canada. What would have been a weekend visit to the San Juans becomes a weekend visit to the Gulf Islands. What would have become a weekend in Portland becomes a weekend in Victoria.
