What is it with Canadian customs problems???

We got detained in Quebec by Canadian customs on the way to the Qwebec Expo a couple months ago. Searched all ouf stuff and terrorized us for an hour before letting us go.

Good luck DH!

Not Canadian customs. Canadian customs are usually pretty cool.

It's the US Customs remote units in both Montreal and Toronto that pre-clear people destined for the USA. They are total bitches.

I hear Elle got turned away also

Canadian Customs is like that. They will harass the nice smiling people, who want to do legitimate business or just come back from a family vacation. I always get stopped coming back into the country. I'm young and I travel with friends/girlfriend so they suspect I'm bringing narcotics back into the country.

They are just keeping the riff-raff out

Wtf... sure let all the terrorist through.. but porn? No way in hell.
[end sarcasm]

It's B/S though :ak47:

the canadian customs said that they would offer another flight if they delay yours.

or so they did for me when i was in toronto.

wow this is fucked up....

didn't he say anything about the reasons?

I mean... does he have a bad record or something?

One good reason why I NEVER say I am traveling for business.:2 cents:

Exactly, I get pulled over, and I look over and I see all the 'suspicious' looking people go right on through.

damn that sucks. hopefully he doesn't lose too much time.

A couple of years ago he was turned away because he had a one way ticket to Alabama to visit his Dad, he was going to drive back to Canada in his Dad's car to return it because the lease was over. They didn't believe him and wouldn't let him in. Ever since he has had a hard time. They have him "flagged"

Canadian customs is a joke, they ask you if you are carrying any illegal fruits..

American Customs are the hard asses, they locked me in a room on a steel bench for an hour before coming in and grilling me for 45 minutes.. I missed my flights and had to stay over night in a hotel.

Great, that means i'am probably flagged too.

Didn't the same thing happen to him on his trip to Curacao. Sounds like they've definitely flagged him for one reason or another. Seems to be happening pretty consistently. Good luck bro!

What would be the consequences if you say you are going to the US for "vacation" or "personal" reasons and not "business" and they find out you were lying? Will you get flagged forever, turned away...?

I was about to say to US Customs I was going to a convention in Vegas last Internext, but someone convinced me to not dare say that to them.

I am flagged with Canadian Customs, I hate it. Everytime I come back to Canada I have to go through immigration and a big onslaught of questions and sometimes all my stuff gets searched.

All because I tried to get my work visa at the airport and didn't have enough paper work..

I hope DH makes it!

oh yeah lol
can imagine that... but then again this it is still ridicilous
If I was to illegally imigrate I'd simply buy a return ticket

fucked the money lol

They should have just come through the Mexican border - we let them all in there :)

Customs has a list of all the adult webmasters? :helpme

Its all Bush's fault


Figure I would get that out of the way for all you guys. Carry on

He's on his way back from the Airport, they finally cleared him but he has to wait until Tomorrow to travel to LA.

I'm sure Magnus and Rob will toast him with a Pint as they party without him
:glugglug

"Bummer" he must be pissed off! :(

A few months ago when I was trying to move to the USA ... The people I spoke to on the phone said I could get my citizenship once I got back to the states. Customs in Toronto wouldn't let me through and I was flagged also. I couldn't fly into the US until I got my US passport from the consulate in Toronto and I still had problems getting through US customs even with a passport saying I was a US citizen.

I got pulled into that room to the left... DH will know what I'm talking about... and I could hear the supervisor yelling at the customs officer. She was like "But he is flagged" His response was " He is a citizen of the USA Get him through now....LOL stupid bitch was arguing with her supervisor for like 5 minutes and he just kept saying "Get him through now"

I fucking hate customs people :feels-hot

I guess they got my message. Hopefully they detain the criminal and search his anal cavity for the dirty bomb I know he's carrying.

DH = terrorist criminal that must be stopped. :Graucho

He got hassled coming back from Curacao as well:(

coming in from Frankfurt last week, got tru the preliminary booth inspection,where they had a dog running up and down the aisles. But soon as I stepped tru the door leading out of there, there were at least 8 customs guys dressed in jack boots and paramiltary uniforms, doing a secondary grilling. Looked liked a bunch of NAZI henchmen... there they asked me a bunch of questions again:feels-hot I hate fucking customs......both sides of the border. Seems to me its much easyer in Europe now.

I am flagged by both US customs and Canada customs. It's a big hassle and not good for tax purposes. Oh well, another 5 years before they supposedly remove it from their record.

Lol so true!

"Did you buy any apples, or take any apples served on the flight"

WTF ... why do they keep him ?

Don't even fucking talk . US customs are 100000000000x worst

Exactly . Toronto fucked me up so badly

Yeah, I was officially denied entry to the US for my first time yesterday. Missed my flight and everything. I guess they're worried that I'm stealing a job from an American, because I needed all that NAFTA paperwork. You know, sometimes it's not worth it being honest to those guys.

This is American customs in the YVR Airport, btw. Boy, was that fun.

too risky.

You and me both bish!

Damn elli, what did you say to them as the reason you're going down?
I never ever say i'm goin down for biz, sometimes i even mail cards n promo shit over to the US just in case, cuz i'm so paranoid. I've never had a problem with airport US customs but have been denied at the land border, a big part of it is because I got extremely cocky. Never had a problem with Canadian customs,= though.

I as a black man never have problems with customs. Canadian or American.
