Yeah you may of beat us, but NASA is using lots of invaluable Canadian technology, without it, the Rover would never have been able to get there in the first place.Originally posted by Ð
Mission scientists yesterday chose the first exploration target for Spirit — a dusty depression they dubbed Sleepy Hollow — using 3-D, black-and-white images captured by the Canadian-built image sensors and transmitted across 170 million kilometres of space.
Yet even the first low-resolution black-and-white Mars photos from Sunday created excitement at the Eastern Townships chip-manufacturing plant — called a foundry in high-tech jargon — where Groulx is a product manager for the international semi-conductor and electronics company with headquarters in Waterloo
We wouldn't be able to see a thing if it weren't for the Canadian technology on-board.
Story
Do you get the impression that the border is artificial? If you are a heavy beer drinker, tea drinker and scone in the afternoon eater, or ask only eh questions then you live in the 51st state. If you burp or fart in public, have an accent that only people within 100 miles of you understand, or think yourself superior then you live in one of the other 50 states.
Oh yeah...tell that to US Immigration, who give a whole new meaning to "give US the finger(print)" by treating travellers as criminals.
But that really isn't any different than when someone from the lower 50 like NY goes to Indiana. Security is just handled by a different element in the society.
I think you're getting your hosers & hoosiers mixed up

LOL!!! This coming from a country that will turn drivers away at the border if they have had a DUI anytime in their life? I had a friend refused passage through Canada on a trip to Alaska 2 years ago because he had a DUI back in the 70's. I guess getting a DUI 30 years ago makes him a criminal
BTW....taking 1 minute to have a digital fingerprint and a picture taken is hardly being treated as a criminal.
If people can't understand we need to take basic steps to police who comes into OUR country, they can just stay away.
One other thing...have you ever been overseas and seen what it takes to gain access to some countries? It's literally one step short of an interogation.
Actually, I have been overseas. You name the country & I've probably been there.
All I have to do is flip them my Canadian passport & breeze right through. I was actually thinking of getting dual British/Canadian citizenship (Tania's British) so I can go through the non-interrogation lines while you suckers get the anal probe
As far as DUI, It's a criminal record. You are barred from crossing north just as I would be barred from crossing south until you get a pardon after a criminal conviction.
The US does not restrict people from entering the US for a DUI.
DUI is not even on the same plane as a "criminal" act.
As a matter of fact, I'm not even sure the US restricts entry except for the most severe criminal crimes like murder/rape. My Mother who is a naturalized US citizen was never asked about a criminal record when she entered the US (unlike the process when we entered Canada)
So we are wrong on who we let in,but you are not wrong on how you treat people going in.I should not have to have my fingerprints taken if I have not broken the law. You can't have it both ways.:)
Political correctness ( or cancel culture as it is called today) is a doctrine fostered by a delusional ,illogical minority, and rabidly promoted by MSM which holds forth the proposition that it is entirely possible to pick up a turd by the clean end.
Harry S Truman 1941.
Typical Ticat..twisting things around to try and portray the US as a bad guy.
No..I was just pointing out how foolish D's whining was when you guys treat people with a DUI as a criminal and interogate people at the border as if each one was a mass murderer waiting to run rampent in your country.
