#5  Kinda like 'should we put bars on prison cells'.

Don't confuse Canada with Mexico.

#4  Yeah, lotp. I did catch that. I just think it's a "duh" to decide to arm border guards. Kinda like 'should we put bars on prison cells'.

#3  You must have missed the stories last year, mcsegeek1. The US *pressured* Canada to do this after several incidents made it clear that criminals and jihadis could cross in either direction and the Canadian border guards would and could do nothing.
