My point, and I assume ROBERTSUNRUS was as well is that there ARE those that can and do harass people because they can. To this day I still remember customs harassing my grandmother, me and my sister, digging through her purse, being extremely rude and flippant because she wasn't answering as fast as he felt she should (She was 70 and this was her 1st airplane trip)and being nasty to us kids as well. That was 1968, long before the issues we have today. Of all places, Customs @YYZ have always been the best
:) Hi, I didn't want to get into all of the details, but I will tell some. We are two old people in our late sixties and early seventies. We also had an 18 year old dog with us. We don't have any records, don't drink, don't smoke, don't do drugs, home owners, fully insured, Etc. They pulled an infra-red temp gun out of my truck and asked what this was for like it was a weapon or something. They ripped an interior panel off of my trailer. They told us to bring our dog inside because it was too hot for him. They told us our dog couldn't come in and to take him out. Then we were told to bring him back in again. We were told to wait in line and when we got to the front they said that we had to sit back down because we didn't take a number. They told us to get into this line and later told us it was the wrong line. I asked them, "what did we do wrong?" They kept saying nothing. They harassed us for over two hours. They finally said it was OK to continue and I asked for a place to turn back to USA. Lot more to this story, but this should give you some idea of what happened to us. We have been to Canada many times before with no problems. This was our first time in Eastern Canada.
