Yes, it's that narrowly restrictive.
My point: all's well if it' IS, but felons and lesser criminals beware. I speak as one removed but one step from personal experience of being refused admission.
Did I mention the extreme selectivity and restrctiveness of Canada's border crossing policy? I did?
Oh, but I DIDN'T tell you what happens if/when they toss you in the pokey while they "think" about yout plight. b'rrrrrrrrr
While he was president of USA, he could enter Canada through
diplomatic protocols, without consideration of past offenses.
As has been discussed elsewhere on the internet, after (or before
) he was in office, he was subject to the same restrictions anyone else had to adhere to.
So, in the bolded section above, I think your statement should read "Mr. Bush".
