I agree it is a bit of a squirrel nest but the states broder is the same if not worse. We have trouble getting into the states also if we have a dui or charges on our records. Heck i went down to the u.sa month ago to shop and they pulled me aside, stripped the truck and interigated me for an hour.No criminal record, not so much as a speeding ticket, taking education in university, yep i am a bad a$$. I had a friend from this site come up to shed hunt a few years back and he checked everything out b4 hand. He could take back sheds as long as they were for personal use and he did not have a truck load. I sent him home with about 20 sheds. Got to the border and they would not let him in. After being interigated they let him across with 6 and he boxed the rest up and ups'd them back to me. Not sure if 6 was the number of the day on seaseme street or where they got that number but made no sense however you look at it. If you are coming into Canada find out exactly where you are going to cross and talk to those people. Also get the name of the person you are talking to on the phone. So often in these cases the left hand doesn't know what the right is doing. I am headed down to the U.S this fall for a trip and will be talking to the people at the exact border crossing i will be using as soon as i figure out what route i am taking.
