I got news for you, buddy. I'm the one arguing that people shouldn't
carry credit card balances if they don't want to pay credit card interest
rates, and I'm a conservative's worst nightmare - I'm a Trudeau Liberal.


Which Trudeau?

Why would a Trudeau Liberal be a conservative's worst nightmare?

How is Canada these days? I haven't visited since before 9/11 due to
the hassles at the border. It was bad enough before.

We go to Canada a couple times a winter to play hockey. Flash them a
hockey stick and you sail right thru. Getting back takes a little
longer. Now they take your ID and run everyone thru the computer to see
if any of you are wanted.

Hassles? Where?

We live on the border and have not been subject to any hassles.

Maybe because of more tourists?

We live in Perry, Maine and we cross the border at Calais/St. Stephen at
least weekly, frequently more often. Usually for shopping or other
errands. No problems going either way.

We did have some occasional quick vehicle searches coming in for probably
six months after 9/11, but nothing recently.

I don't think so. More like, it's a major artery on both sides of the
river. The New York Thruway must dump thousands of people onto those
bridges every day. (The main bridge doesn't even go through Niagara.)

When I was stuck on that bridge, it seemed to me to be mostly trucks.

I was impressed by how smart and friendly the customs guys were, on
both sides of the border. Stupidly I neglected to bring my passport,
having grown up in the era when all you needed to cross the border was
a driver's license. But nobody asked for it!

(Two round trips in the summer of 2002.)

Matt, you should limit yourself to one or two meaningful posts every day.
Most of what you wtite here is garbage.
