#2 Not a bad idea. You know how many poor Americans are sneaking through the vast tracts of frozen desert, risking their lives to cross the border to Canada every day . . .

#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.

Don't confuse Canada with Mexico.
