Mike: I cross the border almost weekly in a commercial capacity. I said in one post on the earlier thread that Customs and Brokers have become an industry. Over the past two years it has become quite clear this operation has nothing to do with security of either country. It is clearly all about that gang of bandits making a living for themselves.

We suposedly have free trade, and if that were truly the case, there is no money to collect. Having said that, the technology does exist to electronically monitor all crossings and who they are. We could have a completely unmaned border for a fraction of the cost. Then we wouldn't have that long line up of trucks emiting fumes into such places as Sarnia, Port Huron, Detroit, Windsor, etc. You cant expect those truckers to sit out there and fry at 34C or freeze at -25C.
