Together In Unity
Together In Unity – to all our American friends – Together We Stand.
I hope so much that the economy will improve , war will end and we all can find common ground.
This is Peace Arch on the Canada – USA border in sort of no-man's land . I used to go shopping to US often but not in few years. I just HATE how everyone is assumed to be a criminal , all the questions …. why , where , how long …. smile here is a big guy with a rubber glove. Last year I was returning on the long flight to Vancouver and … Canada Border Services gives me litany of questions and I politely answered few of them but when he started to ask me why I was traveling by myself only and so one - I just had enough and give him my 5 cents.
“
- Look ! It has be really long day , I have nothing to declare , all my paper work is in order , you can send me to be searched – I really don't care. I have 2 passports Canadian and Polish . Would you like to know what I was told by Polish Customs offices when I arrived in Poland ?
- What ?
- Welcome home ! … and than that fellow smiled . How difficult would it be for you guys to learn something like that !
- Go ! Just go !
and he gave me my passport
