There's absolutely nothing up there. No border patrol. Nothing. I don't know where you got that idea or info, but it is wrong.
There are over a thousand Border Patrol Agents working the Canadian border.

Is that 1,000 per shift or do they try to provide 24 hour coverage on a 4,000-mile-long border with 1,000 agents?

You want to talk irony?
An acquaintance of mine (shooting club) is being transferred from the US/Mexico border to the US/Canada border. He was born and raised down here, is from a Mexican family, and doesn't like the cold weather.
Come to think of it, that's just what the military used to do to us. I guess I shouldn't be surprised!

That was a figure of speech on my part. However, listening to the talk radio shows, and from basic geography, Canadian border has a lot of holes in it. Are they as rigorous there as BP is down south? Last time I went to Canada, they just looked at my birth certificate and that was it.
