What's with the "who paid for your trip?" question

While returning from HKG today, customs asked me "who paid for your trip and what's your profession?", this is the third straight time that they asked me this question. What's this got to do anything? They didn't even bother asking me what I am bring into Canada...

and for the FIRST time, Canada customs wanted to see my airline ticket.

Does Canada customs actually keep track on when you leave and enter the country?

Btw, for those keeping track, i got code R3-3 on my card today... was not sent to secondary.
