Law enforcement cherry pick the laws they wish to enforce. I can give proof of this with Federal law enforcement and local law enforcement. If you got the money, they will look the other way. But if you are a poor victim, they will shug at you and tell you they are "sorry, but the system is Broken". The same system that pays them, and the crimes get worst.

"Reciprocity!" my fellow Canadians, the Yanks bit the hand of kindness and friendship time to let them have a taste. Having travelled a lot in the big wide world I can honestly say "Transit Visa's" for Yanks wanting to go to Alaska, Point Roberts and the North West Angle should focus the "murican mindset wonderfully" Far too long have we give them a break.

Many other countries make Canadians and others give fingerprints and pictures on arrival and check in on a regular basis with address with proof of residence in county. Nothing new.
