My one incident with Canadian border crossing was coming from Montreal into the US via car. Well, Montreal is known for having wonderful pastry...and we bought a nice cake...and it was a very nice cake mind you. They saw the box in the back of the car, and asked what that was...we told them a cake and they demanded to see it. They asked what kind it was, one of them commenting on how good it looked etc. then they said we had to turn it over, we could not enter the US with that cake. There was NO way I was turning that cake over to them. I simply didn't understand what the difference was whether it was in my stomach or in a box. So, I stood there and ate the whole damn cake right in front of them. Austin - -- To unsubscribe, see http://mejac.palo-alto.ca.us/leica-users/unsub.html
