You really don't want to get into this again. I'd rather face a guy with a bat than a guy with a firearm. Common sense. Ironically, a Canadian is now in a New York state jail because he brought his hunting rifle with him as he crossed the border to fill up at a gas station 15 metres from the border. The actual border crossing is about a kilometre further down the road, and locals had been using this gas station for years, as the gas prices in Quebec are quite high.
But things have changed -- you're losing your freedoms. Our foreign affairs people are advising Canadian citizens who were born in the Middle East not to travel via the US. One, a man originally from Syria, was enroute from Damascus, where he'd been visiting family (the first time he'd been there since he left, as a child), and was deported from JFK back to Syria. Canadian consular officials weren't even informed, in direct violation of the Vienna Convention. It's a pretty sad state of affairs when we pinko socialists have more freedom than you do. "John W.
