Why wasn’t he just let go like any other illegal?
Sounds like racism to me.
.22 caliber? Good God...only a Canadian!
I've been there...it's pretty cool.
And he was charged with improper entry by an alien! Hahahahaha wrong border, chump!
I know, right? All that trouble for a .22.

He’ll get less time in the U.S. for stealing than he would if he were caught in Canada with a BB in his pocket.
My grandfather was from Sombra, ON.
The river is narrow with frequent Freighter traffic and a very strong current. He probably drifted several miles downriver while crossing.
For a .22?
.22 caliber is probably the easiest type of ammunition to obtain in Canada.
It is common, and relatively cheap.
Other handgun ammunition is much harder to get.
Why do I feel like its a starving man looking for bread?
But this is obviously a criminal who wouldn’t do this unless they wanted an illegal gun to use for illegal reasons in Canada.
“has been charged with improper entry by an alien,”
Charged? I thought that was a freebie now days.
Plus he was going to be swimming back in to Canada and anything larger could have been a problem ballast wise.
The people in that house must have fun ,LOL
I think that is presumptuous.
Really! He took the .22? Should have at least taken a .45. As the old saying goes, “You might as well hang for a horse as a goat.” He could have just legally bought a high end air pistol and gained the same results. Sheesh!
There are at least several buildings that are literally on the border,including that one in the background.
Also,nearby is a street called "Canusa Street" ("Can" = Canada,"usa" = USA) that *is* the border. I've driven it before.On one side of the street the cars in the driveways have Vermont plates,on the other side they have Quebec plates.
Yea it’s like stealing a Yugo parked next to a Bentle.
