Carry-on suitcases a no-go: Transport Canada
Transport Canada issued enhanced security measures Monday for people flying to the U.S., including not allowing most carry-on items aboard planes.
Among the exceptions are medication or medical devices, small purses, cameras, coats, items for infant care, laptop computers and some other personal care items.
Passengers are only allowed one bag, and small suitcases with wheels typically carried aboard aircraft will now have to be checked with other luggage.
That means a passenger with a purse and a laptop would have to choose which one to bring on the plane.

Typical liberal BS. Don’t bother to find out why and how the system failed, just make it more onerous and inconvenient. Leaving in place of course the part that failed in the first place. You end up with a bigger, more complicated system likely to suffer the same failure.
forcing Canadian women to ditch the purse at the checkpoint...yeah, THAT’LL really keep us safe!
