Jack .......thanks for that post. Unfortunately most US hunters think that all the border problems are being caused by the Canadian gov't......nor do they realize that Canadian hunters travelling to the US have similar problems.

The passport situation was created by the US Homeland Security people and if our two gov'ts don't get their act together we will both need passports to travel back and forth.

Canadian hunters have to get a permit from the BATF to bring a rifle down to the US to go hunting and you need to apply a minimum of 3 months prior to the trip to get things done in time. Canadian hunters could also throw up their hands and say, "No way, I'm just going to stay in Canada and hunt."

She is a two way street my friends..................

Get use to it as it will not get any better. Hunters who have been travelling across the pond to countries in Africa and Asia have been getting run through the ringers with gun import permits and what not for decades.

I am not saying I like it, but it's just the way it is. I for one am not going to let a little red tape stop me from going and doing the things I enjoy.
