First paragraph of the post I excerpted. What is unclear about this?

Canadian airport security personnel do not ask veiled Muslims women to lift their veils, show and ID, and prove their identity; the veiled women do not even interact with security personnel: rather, a man traveling with the women typically hands in all the passports and is the only one to communicate with airline staff while the veiled women simply walk through, unchecked and unidentified; a video showing two veiled women walking unchecked through security at Montreal's Trudeau International Airport causes outrage in Canada.

Surprised this happened in Montreal ... Toronto would be my guess. Quebec gov’t has made it very clear to Muslim types immigrating to the province that you will assimilate, if not, you're invited to leave ... Ontario is always looking for a few good Muslim types.

Those flights should be turned back. US law requires all airlines to indentify people on incoming flights. That doesn’t mean accepting documents from a third party.

Exactly. I don’t know what the TSA is thinking. They are morons. It’s much easier to board and flight elsewhere that is coming TO the U.S. Then tigger the explosives over the U.S.

Flashback: Our Canadian friends calling us stupid for electing Bush.
Apparently, their elected leaders are functioning morons.

Americans quite understandably get the general view of Canadians possibly from a liberal infested media. Up until a few years ago, the dissenting Canadian did not have a chance, unless happening to go one on one with an American who would listen. We have a feisty little blog site which has the statement. "They(media) say what Canadians think"- in all that time they have never asked me.

Please excuse the rant but I must indicate more. During the last presidential election, the two tax payer funded monoliths in television CTV and more so CBC, openly and shamelessly shilled for Barack Obama. This with 80,000 American expats who had the right to vote in that election. An absolute ethical crime, if not downright against the rules.

That time they did not call Americans stupid. Indeed no. As of late, they do not seem to be throwing their underwear at the winning candidate. No, they are concentrating on the Republicans in a dismissive way, 'specially Sarah.

I concede your point, we in Canada are almost paralyzed by political correctness. We are paying a price. The exceptions are out their though, witness Ezra Levant and others.

I came through Seattle 3 years ago and the answer was no - they are not even searched when they come to the USA

And they could very well be men under those veils with explosives strapped to them. Ain`t political correctness grand?

It’s frightening. I’m am so grateful that we don’t have to fly anywhere in the near future, but some people have to fly. They have no choice.
