You are ignorant about how life is crossing into other countries. In the 1990s, my friend who is a white Canadian drove into Buffalo for dinner with his family, and on his way back the Canadian border patrol asked him where he was going. He answered “Canada” instead of Toronto and based on that they detained him for hours and ripped apart his car.

Just recently a woman from the UK was denied entry into Canada and because of that was denied entry back into the US and found herself in the same mess as the person in the article.

This happens all the time, you just don’t hear about it until the news decides to make a thing about it.

"woman from the UK was denied entry into Canada and because of that was denied entry back into the US"

You are proving my point, she was again detained by USA for 3 weeks when it could have been resolved much better and faster.

Yes we agree then. Every country is strict at the border. That’s my point.

there's a difference between sending someone back where they came from (what Canada did) and torturing them (what the US is doing, sleep deprivation is torture).
