Wow. Pretty sure I would've just kindly told them to go self-fornicate with a chainsaw and turned around and went home. Whatever happened to the obnoxiously nice Canadian stereotype?
Yeah, CA sucks a big one. No one should ever pay for the privilege of hunting up there. F their tourism industry. Many years ago a group of us were going up there for a wedding. One guy had a DUI 12 years earlier and they wouldn't let him in the country. After much ball busting on their part we told them to go F a moose and turned around and skipped the wedding. They still detained us for over an hour. We should have such a good border.
