Go on a Holiday, Come and visit Canada!
Did once upon a time.
Fishing trip of a life time. Brother, Father and me.
From poor memory think it was the Churchill River. Walleye and Pike were great. 4 days fishing with guild. A little pricey.
We were warned about the Border boys. We were on solid very good behavior
Only real gripe was the very long wait with the border patrol uniformed officers. We were in a van and these guys were unhinged on guns (we had zero guns) They
hot temperately THREATENED to rip the panels out of my brand new van to find
"the gun" First issue they were looking for was any OUT BOARD MOTOR. How can you hide an out board motor in a van?
The last issue was the cigar count. I knew they would ask about smokes. I had the exact count. he made us open the bags. they were in packs of three. We had 11 packs. I claimed 33. He said I had 55, and I was in border law trouble.
I counted them -- 3-6-9-12-15-18-21-24-27-30-33.
All three uniformed border officers looked a little funny, say nothing, & waved us on to our fishing trip of a life time.
My brother went back 2 more times. The thought of ripping my van to a heap, was enough.
