So why'd you pass this law again?

So the American government has delayed the "very important" Passport requirement. Again. Apparently, while Europe's opening their internal borders, we're America is closing ours. How do they justify this law? Well, they say that since 9/11, there needs to be more security. Here we are 7 years later and they've decided that Canadians are so unruly that we're causing the world to end or something. They still haven't implemented "critical" security measures and keep delaying them as the date approaches.

I sure miss the good old days when I could travel to America without even a piece of ID. I'd like to see evidence of Canadians going to America with the intent of committing crimes.

It's a joke that someone would turn up at the border, and be told "you're actually not supposed to be allowed in without a Passport. Here's a pamphlet to tell you that you need a Passport. You can go in now." Don't read it while driving. I'm sure it will put you to sleep (a greater danger than not bringing your Passport, no doubt). If this measure is so important, than why are we always getting extensions?

Listen to the public here. Europe's doing just fine. We want the old way back. Look at the reports, America is more likely to be attacked by people who already live there than by someone from outside, especially Canada. Sure, go ahead and put stiffer controls in place, but Passports? Quit dreaming.
