Unfortunately, the law is the law, no way around it. Get with the program or take your chances. I doubt very much whether this one instance is going to make them change the laws that are on the books. They will enforce their law when they want to, because they can. No different then happens on our side of the border.

Just read a letter from Congressman Jim Owens to Canadian officials in support of the fisherman that I saw on Newzjunky .com. Interesting reading regarding the interpretation and application of this law and its impact on the local economy.

Kevin, check out the article in the Times this morning basically saying the Canadians are correct. I believe Owens is off on his interpretation.

By the way, the number I told you about the other day cant not be called from a cell phone or from the states. Last Friday I tried calling and was told I had to call in from Canada. I went to the marina in Rock Port, called in and gave them my boat number, who was in the boat, their birth dates and citizenship, they gave me a report number and i was done. Took about 10 minutes (five to answer the phone and five to give them all the info).

The catch is, after doing that, you are supposed to report back in when you come back into the states. I was told I can do that at the video phone on the main dock in Alex Bay or report into customs at Boldt Castle would work too I guess.

I have applied for a NEXUS card as suggested by US Customs and others on here.

I saw the article in the Times and it does appear that this is the way it will remain. Unfortunately it is just a huge hassle for a few hours fishing so I will likely be spending my time on the US side unless I'm traveling across the bridge to Quinte. It really pisses me off that a few crazy terrorists have effected our lives in so many ways but I guess that's the world we now live in.
