The US border guards are nowhere near as bad as the Canadian ones, and the Canadian border laws are worse too: having been barred from entry by one shitheaded guard in the past is grounds to be barred automatically in the future.

Maybe border guards are jerks to non-citizens.

And it's funny, please tell Fox News that are border laws are more stringent. Apparently we're the leaky sieve of North America when it comes to letting in terrorists :)

Strictness and obnoxiousness are orthogonal.
