Hopefully someday Canada will realize that the criminals do not have to fill out any paperwork. Neither should law abiding citizens of the US or the GWN.

However 98% of Canadians are also in favour of the fence you are talking about putting up along the border.

BTW, agree on the fence on both of our borders. Not worried about you guys (my copilot is from Ottawa) but the "others" that sneak across the border intent on killing both Canadians and Americans. Someday as well hopefully you guys will stop letting anyone and everyone in the country.

One of the funiest things I ever saw was American hunters in northern Quebec hunting caribou, they had the camo gear on and scopes on their rifes that were huge, guess they didn't know that you can walk up to 20 feet of them or just sit still and wait, they will come to you. Walter Payton showed up that year too, I think Bow hunting, had an NBC or ABC crew following him everywhere, it was the year after he retired and they were filming a "whats Walter doing now" clip. We knew who he was but the locals didn't and couldn't care less. There was only 1 hotel in town, Shefferville, so we got to have beers and BS sessions with Walter, real nice guy BTW. Too bad he's gone.

Canadian Treaty Indians can cross the border going south to hunt, anywhere, anytime, sometimes the parks are closed to them but not that often, show their treaty card and away they go, they can also hunt anytime and anywhere in Canada too as long as the game is for their own personal consumption.
I do my hunting at Safeway - the meat department. Finn

I bought an old MC in Canaga hast year and had to go back with my P/u to get it in the fall.....As I left Canada, I asked those guys what I needed. They told and then said. BUT call the boarder crossing you will be using, ask for the supervisor and record his/her name....Paid be dividends to me for sure!

Current government has tabled legislation to end the long gun registry. It has cost me as a taxpayer 2 billion dollars and was the worst POS regulations that a government had ever introduced. Not sure how it will effect visitors bringing long guns across the border as of yet. But as soon as the registry is repealed I will no longer be a criminal. Have fun hunting.
