With friends like US, Canada doesn't need enemies. All the trade
bull**** you people pull in spite of having treaties and agreements in
place. We bent over backwards on 9/11 when hundreds if not thousands
of
americans had to land in Canada from overseas flights, we took you into
our homes where-ever you landed, and still we're treated like North
Koreans at the US/Canada border.


Home Guy:

That's because there are very many different Canadians with very many
different agendas.


Home Guy has his own imaginary agenda.

Don't tell me you don't remember that Episode in Seattle where a guy
wanting to drive to the Los Angeles Air Port had a bomb hidden in the
trunk of his car?


Do you remember back in the mid to late 1970s when the FBI went into
Canada, after a fugitive from Florida. The guy had been selling swamp
land that he did not own and duped investors out of money, never
saying the land was "swamp" land. The FBI stuffed him in the trunk,
flashed their badges at the Canadian border agents and entered to the
USA. It created an international incident. They had "kidnapped" a
Canadian

Don't tell me you don't remember when both Canadian and American border
guards had trouble keeping Canadian natives from smuggling tax exempt
cigarettes from Canada into the US to be sold on the black market?


If an America tries to cross into Canada in a vehicle with tags from a
gun friendly state; they automatically have the vehicle detained for
long periods while the car is basically torn apart. Even if you
declare you have no guns.

About 89/90 we sent prisoners back to Canada from Saranac Lake, NY -
FCI -Raybrook. An official Canadian consulate member traveled with
prison officials and correctional officers. When they crossed back
into Canada, the bus was detained, searched and a large quaintly of
American cigarettes were found in the bus cargo hold. They almost
arrested all of the delegation, while the prisoners sat on the bus.

And, I suppose you haven't heard about Canadians in BC trying to smuggle
marijuana across the BC/Washington state border?

The vast majority of Canadians consider Americans to be friendly
neighbors, and vice versa, but the border services are there to try to
identify and stop the few who are intent of exploiting that good will to
smuggle drugs, guns, people and terrorism across the Canada/US border.


Exactly.
