It's no secret border agents everywhere (not just Canada or USSA) often make prejudgments based on skin color--rightly or wrongly. At least we know in your boyfriend's case, race was not part of the situational equation.
Not sure if it will help you, but Canadian Consulates in the USA:

Thank you for that.

I am checking out the link now! Thanks! Also referring my boyfriend to this forum as well. I also gave him the info of who to contact from that list and put it on his forums so he will see it.
When talking to the Canadian Consulate is it okay for him to say I am his fiance or should he just refer to me as a friend?
