And shouldn't happen anytime ever.

Read my other posts again. The examples I gave were those convicted of committing a crime.
Didn't seem clear. At any rate, those that have travel restrictions placed on them are done thru the court system and are monitored anyway thru release programs as mandated by the judicial system. If a person has paid their debt to society, then they shouldn't be harassed anymore.

That's like getting harassed for something done 30-40 years ago in college (say disorderly conduct or something) and paying the price forever. Canada denies entry for relatively minor convictions and it's a real pain to deal with (check the threads on it). I don't want to see that happen here for domestic movement.
