...If the Canadian government (pttooooie!) could care less about
>terrorists here,  you can imagine where illegal CB'ers rank.

I am curious why you say that.  One would think the Canadian gov't would 
have the same concern about terrorism as the US.  I don't see why the 
US-Canadian border should now be policed any heavier than it ever was 
before, if both countries were equally aware of the problem and cooperated 
with a determination to realistically and effectively deal with the problem.

My opinion has been that this is just an excuse to stop and interrogate more 
people, when otherwise it wouldn't happen to travellers between let us say 
Tennessee and Kentucky or Quebec and Ontario.
