Re: New US Border rules.

Its becoming something to where you literally have to get pre-clearance before you enter the US now.

With so much "ignroance due to time" about people's past criminal history its almost better to request a pre-clearance check (via CPIC) before you even go to the US, much like you would for employment.

It's called a NEXUS Card.

It's funny when even the American interviewing you for NEXUS thinks that the whole process and uptightedness surrounding it is a joke. "Bureaucrats in Washington who know nothing about living on the border" was his exactly line, if I remember correctly.

The Canadian who interviewed us was friends with my wife. He's since been promoted.

It's true, bureaucrats have no idea what the real world is like. They sit in their offices in the heart of power and decide that the world should revolve counter clockwise instead of clockwise.

Ummm... The world does revolve counter-clockwise when viewed from above the north pole.
