Thank you.
A voice of reason.
Serious question here. Is there a large sign at the border that informs people that once they are on the premises of the inspection station, they have no rights and must do everything the border agent tells them to do and answer every question whether they know the answer or not?
That Canadian man obviously did not know any of that. Had he been informed of the true circumstances, he probably would have been yes sir’ing at every opportunity or maybe he just would have stayed in Canada. People need to know that they have no rights in that place and they are at the total mercy of another human being - who may be on a power trip - before they enter the area.
I’ll bet every terrorist would know that in advance and never act like this Canadian man did. So do you think they suspected the man was a terrorist or drug runner? No way. So why did they treat him like that and arrest him? I think they enjoyed making him squirm and making his wife cry even though they knew they were innocent and that is not their job. I hope. They acted more like terrorists than the Canadian man did.
