"the US government, over Canadian objections, now looks at everyone's papers as they leave the US for Canada by train"
This is the first I've heard of this. Do you know when this started? They didn't do this when I returned by bus from Minicon and I can't think of a good reason for doing something like this with trains and not buses. (Well I can't think of a good reason for doing it on either but it seems even odder to differentiate.) I don't blame the guy. I wouldn't want to announce to a train full of people how much money I was carrying no matter where I was.
