What is the justification? Will they provide a express lane at least? Canada should reciprocate and charge a $20 entry fee into Canada since at least 20 times more Yanks come to Canada than vice versa.

How would express lanes for planes and boats work?

For cars, there already is an express lane. Nexus.

Utter bull****. More Yankee arrogance. Time to charge them a $1,000 entry fee to Canada and rights to their first born son as well.

The whining and the bitching was simply astonishing. I know, necro poster, but it's so much fun reading old threads. :)

And never have I ever encountered such a spiteful hateful bitch like the on in this thread.

This is an old thread. The DTOPS decal for commercial trucks
that cross often is now over $400 annually, & so the $5.50 fee
mentioned has also jumped several times. It's just a fact of life
in commercial cross border transportation.

It's now $13.50 in USD to cross the border, and factor in the
exchange rate, multiple that by all foreign trucks crossing the
border, each trip, and it becomes chunky money.

They're collecting it to build a wall!

You would say that, you think it's funny, wait till we get there. True North Strong and Expensive.
When we get into the warmer latitudes we get crazy.




When you get to Gopherland be sure to serve it up with generous portions of Canadian bacon. You'll get so many customers you will have to work overtime to satisfy them all. :)

Huge security is going to surround the U.S. - Canada border .....

As the U.S. Empire collapses, there will be a zillion Canadians attempting to enter America just to keep warm in the Southern States. The cost of heating large homes during the winter months in Canada will be prohibitive.

The question is: why on earth do folks need such big homes to begin with?? Perhaps Canadians need to get a lot more realistic. about what we really NEED......as opposed to want. It is time to get creative and innovative. As the US continues t deteriorate ....it is going to get ugly. (uglier)

Not sure any sane person would pay to to to that bizarre place now.

CDA needs t get more independent of the US and soon.
