The negative experiences I've had at the border have all been on the  
U.S. side. At one crossing I almost asked the border guard what had  
been the point of me spending 4 years in the Army, if this was the  
kind of treatment I was going to get from my own government? (I  
didn't, 'cause the guy was a class-A jerk, and I'm sure he would have  
shot me.)

The Canadians, on the other hand, are almost criminally polite and  
friendly. But then I haven't crossed in a few years, so I don't know  
how it's going now.
