“In recent years, stories coming from those who cross the Canadian/US border have become increasingly like those of the caricatures seen in the films of fifty years ago, depicting totalitarian East European countries that were under the control of the USSR. (‘Your papers, pleece! Step ziss vay! Ve heff som qvestions!’) Many people have come to fear the Canadian/US border crossing, worrying that their answers to questions by Immigration officers (some of which have no bearing on immigration) will somehow provide officers with an excuse to detain or arrest them. Some have ceased travel across the Canadian/US border altogether.”
