Canadian Expediters Do you expedite North of the Border or are Canadian based? This is your forum! If you're like most US based expediters you spend a great deal of time trucking in Canada.

They are RULES not LAWS....rules are meant to be changed, broken and bent.....Congress did not make the rules the INS did.....

Re: Work in Canada, live in US?

The ruls or law for me is the same for a both things if you have a person will obay the ruls and law................ The lawyer al ways said have a law and under law -million small doors and if you knok one of the small but right door you are in right spot.

What is popular is not always right, and what is right is not always popular!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Example of this discretion is....I did not have to do the 2 year temperary card BECAUSE they ruled that because I had a FAST Card for 3 years and precleared it wasn't necessary.
This post says it best. Alborada, just because OVM's experiences have been a bit different than yours doesn't make his wrong. This an argument about things that are clearly and definitely gray. (How's that for a contradiction of terms?) It's like getting pulled over for doing 10 over. One cop will let you go, one will write you up for the whole 10, one will knock it down to 5 over.

Now, if Canada would just apologize for Celine Dion...

You know actually that would be a nice gesture on their part.

Politics is a game of engagement

In order for you to change something you don’t like, to change something for the betterment of your country or to change just for the need of change, you must be involved, engaged and vocal.


So don’t blame me if Congress passes laws that affect you, your family or your rights

Be Engaged!

Exclamation Re: Work in Canada, live in US?

Diva, :
The problem is not that there problems.The problem is expecting otherwise and thinking that having peoblems is a problem!!!!!!!!!!!!
The optimist proclaims that we live in the best of all possible world: and pessimist fears this is true.
Drive safty and don't cry because the miseries its over ,smile because it happened...........
