I’ve never had a problem crossing into Windsor, it’s the American Border agents coming back on our side that are the Asses.

Cross on Friday to fish the weekend. Coming back-Have boat, gear and a cooler of fish AND he can see I crossed 2 days earlier with all but fish.

“Um where you traveling?”Home you jackass. You know the address on my Truck, Trailer, Boat and Enhanced drivers license you scanned 50 yards back! Oh no, stop, open your truck, pull the tarp off the boat. Need to sniff the cooler.

Meanwhile Akmed and his car full of bad intentions is waved by....

It's illegal for Americans to wash up in Canada?

I changed planes in Canada recently and had a several hours' wait for the connecting flight. During that time I used the restroom and washed up afterwards. Good thing no one saw me!

My Grandfather grew up in Sombra, Ontario, across from Marine City , MI. There is a ferry boat crossing there with a small 1-2 man customs station. The last time I rolled through, maybe 12 years ago, I remember the customs guy leaning on a wall, kindly talking with a lady in her car. A local walks off the ferry boat with a “Mornin Joe” and heads past on his way to work or whatever.

I’m sure it’s much different now.

Apparently, people can now zip line over the Niagara Falls.

Your statement:

.....Canadian border agents at both Windsor are assholes and will go out of their way to harass Americans returning to the U.S. from Canada.....

This has me puzzled, not that I am doubting you. I am at Sault Ste. Marie Ontario, a twin city with Sault Ste. Marie Michigan. Anyone going over to the American side from Canada simply goes right past the Canadian Customs. Even the Canadian duty free store is located past the customs.

Same thing when one comes back from the good old USA. Drive right through past the US Customs after paying bridge fees.

So bloomin' friendly up here- if one minds ones manners.

I stand corrected in my statement to you, which should have carried a qualifier. I have seen American vehicles having to stop first to declare catches of fish on the Canadian side. This to prove they have the mandated limit of catch in Canada. No over fishing.

What I meant was that the average person in the vast majority, zooms right over the bridge. Only stopping for entry the USA. Customs people pretty nice there, but I guess a couple of senior citizens going to Walmart do not raise any hackles.

I am going to get quiet a laugh about my post. I downloaded the whole entry on msm.com and I hope to be excused this digression. Ok, something else on the entry, caught my eye about a poor little sick dog. The great people at an animal rescue went to great lengths to bring the poor little animal back to near normal. Many photographs, from Pennsylvania.

I almost cried. The dog is now given the name of Libra. Ok, donation for Libra coming from me and (drum role) a donation for FR.

Promise.
