I agree with Brenda the Canadian Border assholes at the thousand island bridge are a bunch of pricks.. they probably spent the rest of the day getting their jollies at these guys expense.. I usually go to the states via Quebec/Vermont border and have encountered very little difficulty in the many years of back and forth.. but i am working close to the 1000 island bridge and have been over about 3x it 2yrs.. and I have to say these tools are something else.. they spend more time worrying about collecting tax for the government coffers than checking for terrorists or drug traffickers ...
porn on a computer? ya that is a security threat.. some nurses I work with went over for a girls day out .. shopping etc.. on their return their car was stripped .. hub caps and all and they were left to put it together.. how much did they spend in the US.. between the 4 of them 200 bucks... time to end this bullshit..
I have to say i have crossed the 1000 islands many times, was using that way for a while, kinda swithched back to the Queenston Lewiston crossing. depends on how much travel time I have.
I fiind all border agents to be stoic, so i am the same way with them they ask i answer. I do find the American border agents to be a little more open to a smile or light humor. the canadian one seem not to want to be there. they seem to be super concerned about stupid gifts we might be bringing to Canada for the family.
I dont think the US trusts the canadian border gaurds when i crossed a month ago we had to go through a us control before the canadian, going into Canada.
