catocony - I'm not trying to make excuses - based on the law as it is applied in AZ I would have voted myself guilty at trial. Actually if I had known that I was deemed 'inadmissible' the moment I refused to voluntarily provide a blood sample there wouldn't have been a trial.

I was in jail with a 20 year old kid who was in for his second extreme DUI. His only concern was if he could have a couple beers at lunch once granted work release (he was in for two weeks straight and then six weeks of being let out for work each day.) If I am considered no different from that idiot, then so be it - I just doubt that was the intention of the policy.

I'm just one guy trying to find out the odds of getting though YVR with a modern passport and flags in the system. That question has been settled. I just wish Canada would clarify the policy in unambiguous language, and clearly I'm not alone in that desire.
