I've recently relocated to Washington state and am close to the Canadian border. I thought about driving a few hours to check out the sights in BC and satisfy a many years long Tim Horton's drought this weekend (I'm originally from New England where we had Tim's for a brief shining moment in time), but decided against it after reading a plethora of instances online where Canadian authorities have done the same to people at the border.
I figure if I don't get the runaround on the way in, I'll get it on the way back. Sad, but not worth the trouble.

I'm not a criminal, nor do I have any criminal history, I pay my taxes and all that other good stuff you check off a list when you go on a rant like this. Someday maybe I'll have a reason to fly in. For the interim, I remain maple dip-less.
