While traveling the Fifth Wheel as well as a Motorhome`s are considered a your secondary residence that's why there are specific laws that address search and seizure in the states ,you would think Canada would follow the same.

We do in Canada as well but they don't apply to border personnel in either country, or any other country I know of. Unlike the police who need a warrant unless something is in plain view, border personnel do not.
Please note my friends problem was over 40 years ago and he paid for his indescretions 40 years ago . Here in the States people are given a second chance and not thrown out with the dishwater. What does Canada do with their people who have paid for their problems ?????? kick em out an tell them don't come back?
Either side will jump on anyone who has had a criminal conviction and a DUI is a criminal offense in Canada. A few years ago a fellow who worked with my wife took his wife and kids to Disneyland. He wound up in the LAX slammer and was put on the next flight back while his family stood there and watched. His offense was a pot possession charge when he was in his late teens.
People who have had convictions need to get it sorted out before they try and cross.
Your treatment does sound somewhat over the top though.
