Yes, they need to be careful, but I am just cynical enough to think, if these relief supplies were meant to help Muzzies, they would get through in a matter of minutes.
An inspection is one thing. Requiring an itemized, alphabetized inventory and affixing labels to each individual item is ridiculous. Especially with a shipment intended for relief.
This country gets more fugged up every day.
This bunch could screw up a two car funeral.
If it has perishible food on board it’s already done for.
Why would you even think about perishible food with out a reefer?
I will admit the US officials are being asses!
Get another trailer inventory it and get on the road.
Or just run it over to the Canadian Goodwill and be done with it!
Return to the border with the same truckload, manifest it as ‘solid landfill waste.’ A condition applies to waste products: It may not be sold for anything other than landfill material. Items in the truckload can never be sold in any form or fashion.
You can give it away, however.
If they were requiring them to check for explosives or something like that, the caution could be warranted. But to alphabetize all the stuff is just plain asinine.
Just tell the Border and Immigration guys you are all illegal Hispanics and they will let you through without any protest or inspection.
“After we win this election, it’s our turn. Payback time. Everyone not with us is against us and they better be ready because we don’t forget. The ones who helped us will be rewarded, the ones who opposed us will get what they deserve. There is going to be hell to pay. Congress won’t be a problem for us this time. No election to worry about after this is over and we have two judges ready to go.”
- Valerie Jarrett
While alphabetizing the stuff can be perceived as harrassment, it would work in the favor of the Canadian donors by speeding up the inspection process, especially if burden is on one inspector to very the stuff.
I notice in the article Moore, OK hasn’t been declared a disaster area. I couldn’t believe that and wonder why the gov’t is dragging their feet?? Surely the Gov. of OK declared a disaster.
They have it in a refrigerated truck per the article and it also says had the idiot in charge of this country declared Moore a disaster area the aid would get right through:
Because U.S. President Barack Obama hasn’t declared Moore, Okla., tornado a disaster area, the 52-foot trailer of goods is considered a commercial shipment rather than humanitarian aid.
Several companies gave donations. Sauve’s group secured skids of food donated from Heinz Canada, a refrigerated truck from ADT Transportation and fresh fruits and vegetables from a number of greenhouses in Leamington, Ont., southeast of Windsor.
I give the US Government full credit...for consistency - as in always brick-headed.
Absolutely proto-*ing-typical government action.
Hot Canadian story!
Bring down this evil government!
Koo~ sorry I missed that and Apologize.
One question has the Gov of OK asked for Disaster Relief?
Not a Slam just a question?
It’s plain to see they need it and two Canadian Christian groups decided to help out.
To all- please ping me to Canadian topics.
Canada Ping!
Bump!
After you have stolen this election.
Food is expensive here but is more along the quality of shopping at high end Whole Foods instead of commercial grade Safeway. It's a lot more international in origin as well with imports from Europe, South America, Middle East and Asia.
