The exceptions were 1963 and 1967. The publication, which brings together in one docu- ment related data from a wide variety of bureau publications and some out- side sources, reports that Canadians spent $1,460 mil- lion on travel in 1970--$68.30 for every man, woman and child in the country. The only others close to that figure were Sweden ($62.40) and Denmark ($58.00). U.S. spending on foreign travel was only $19.90 per capita. If the total travelling and visiting time used by those who could afford to travel outside Canada had been spread equally among the population, every Canadian resident would have been able to spend three nights in the United States and some- thing more than one in some other foreign country during the year.

In the same year, Ameri- can tourists spent 66 million nights in Canada, almost balancing the Canadian fig- ure although, on a per capita basis, it represented only three-tenths of a night per U.S. resident. | . Despite the fact that Can- adian tourists visiting the United States spent an ave- rag® of $85.64 per visit, as compared with only $69.80 spent in Canada' by the average U.S. visitor (we tend to stay longer), Canada enjoyed a favorable balance of payments on travel ac- count, with the U.S. of some $146 million in 1970.

The deficit has grown every year since, excepting 1967, and in 1970 amounted to $372 million.
