This is another experience that I went through at robotics.
When crossing the border to go to the US, the security guards stopped the bus (they were ALL white I swear), took all our passports to scan, and even took some brown people (middle east you know) and had them question.
The trip accross the US border took 2.5 hours. No kidding.
On our way back, we were very tired. We were about to cross the canadian border so we figured it would be the same as the way into the US. We all had our passports ready. He came on the bus for exactly one second, smiled, and said "Welcome back home!". He didn't check a thing. The guy beside me said "Damn its good to be back".
The guy didn't check anything, he just let us through.
Which is why, Canada is the best, most friendly (excluding my parents) place in the world

Expecially after the 9/11 crap, you'd expect something totally different, no?
Omfg just because a tragedy happened once doesn't mean it will happen after osama has been captured xD
racists....
Right... So they should let their guard down, eh? Terrorists will attack them like... something that attacks a lot... Wait you people till something big happens to Canada, then we'll be the most unfriendly people after USAs.
Well it doesn't mean we're all unfriendly. Most though, are.
My dad is Middle Eastern and he's always getting stopped when crossing the border etc.
I hate that...
I may live in the states.. but im not patriotic at all.. i really dont care about living here haha... id rather move to canada... hell im more then half way there already (michigan)
Well its just because nobody wants to attack Canada... So you have no reason to have tight security etc.
Exactly... that and im at the legal drinking age now

That's what they'll target next. We're all like "lol they'll never attack us, we're super-friendly to everything and everyone!", but one day, we'll get attacked just cuz we live next to the USAs. We ARE an important part in American's plans to dominate world...
haha yea never know... maybe they will just bomb you for being do damn nice... or because you like hockey... or whatever... terrorists reason for bombing something never really made sence to me.

We wont get attacked. You can't defeat the US by destroying a neighbour. Besides, theres more countries that do more than us. We send very little over (we dont want to get involved, and its so friggin obvious).
Like if a terrorist would care... *takes Air Canada, haxx0r and kill pilots, crash in Quebec's barrages; causing MAJ0R floods, infesting USAs and flooding the world!! Oh nosss!!*
Terrorists probably dont even know were Canada is... you guys are to quiet and dont cause any commotion

Thats why we are getting attacked... we are always stiring up trouble. Or at least Bush is.

i don't like Canada because it took 8 hours to get over the border.
Well thats what happens with your a mysterious guy in shades and a trench coat carrying a very heavy briefcase that seems to be ticking...

We aren't too hot with americans. Mostly because the people who attacked the world trade center were accually american citizens already. They shouldn't worry about the people coming in, they should worry about the people already in.
that's funny! well, actually, it would be a good way to put america into more of a deficit by attacking canada. You see, our dear and loving president thinks that it is our right to protect everyone who is perfectly capable of protecting themselves, so of course, he will intervene.
Effects:
Deficit sky rockets
Soldiers spread out thinner
Money spent on defense suddenly goes to offense
Bush looks like the hero and gets reelected.
Overall, I hope canada doesn't get attacked.
Besides, I love the people in canada! They are so awesome! Well, at least, the people I met, and I love the accent. The only thing is that Americans like to add "eh" to the end of everything they say, even if it doesn't fit.
I think canada should just invade america and take it over... id rather be under the rule of a president who says eh, rather then a beer drinkin, shotgun weilding redneck president...

Besides who are "they"? "They" are already dead and captured. xD
Oh and if "they" do attack Canada, "they" will land in SP's home. xD
If Canada has better Ketchup and BBQ Sauce... you'll see me there pretty soon

Wasn't there an old movie like that? I forget what it was called though. A couple of sheriffs go into canada to rescue somebody, and end up just about starting a war between the U.S. and canada...
Ahh kinda like South Park the Movie
Other then that movie i have never heard of a movie were US and Canada goto war.

Yeah that would be the day, Canada has one the weakest militarys in the world. Besides you may think having a lax government would be a good thing but it just leads to anarchy and chaos within the country.

That movie is pathetic and unrealistic.... so stupid it was kinda funny.
It's like the US put some ultimate weapon or something like that in Canada.... I dunno xD
We got a weak military. I'll be the first to admit that.
Oh wait, who are we defending ourselves against? We have no enemies. We're friends with everybody.
Terrorism in Canada? Yea right. We aren't directly involved on the war on terror.
USA attacking Canada? Thats the perfect way for everyone to go against the US and then the US gets kicked out of the UN. Not a bad idea accually, Canada could always be bigger...
The bottom line is, you cant mess with canada because
>> We're multicultural.
>> We got lots of natural resources.
>> We have no enemies, only friends.
>> There is less crime, death and bad stuff then there is in the US.
>> You can't argue with a country that gives FREE health care. We all have the right to health care without having to pay.
>> Canadians are the most friendly non racial people you'll ever see.
Which is why we must uprise and take over the US and invite the Canadian leaders to take power over the US!!!

j/k the US aint bad... just dont like rednecks thats all...

lol
