    I don't think we can all fit that close to the border tho. Somebody gonna have to move into the frozen north. As a Draenei, I don't think celista will make it.
    I'm a Draenei that hails from Alaska so I'll be fine. The further north the better, my blood elf prisoners have almost zero body fat so the cold climate will be the perfect punishment if they should happen to misbehave. @breadisfunny

    This has always confused me: why is there even a border control between Canada and the US? What function does it serve? Why can't it be like in EU instead?

    For years nobody paid much attention to the border, where it cut towns in half people would act like the border didn't exist. Many of the roads going into Canada didn't even have customs check points.

    Then came 9/11.

    You might like your milk in a bag, but that's completley unAmerican. Couple it with all labels in French... Well... Sir... You might as well be suggesting taking a big ol' shit on our flag... Disgraceful!

    I'm surprised the mods haven't changed the thread title on this? First, CLEARLY they weren't trying to cross the border doing this making the title extremely stupid. Secondly, they therefor weren't "illegally" doing anything.

    No, they were totally immigrants. Poor bastards gave up everything, but swimming trunks, for a better life. These brave heroes even remembered to keep the most important rule. They brought towels...

    Anything that is not below Colombia is not South America.

    Americans are still trying to learn Spanish. We couldn't possibly add French to that list at the moment. Heads would explode. I suppose we could just make Quebec off limits until such a time as we are ready for it.

    The majority of illegal firearms (handguns especially) in Canada are smuggled in from the US. We don't want even more American contraband.

    Doing something by accident doesn't make it not illegal.

    In terms of the title of this thread, it sure as shit does. Did they "illegally" enter Canada? What exactly is "legally" entering Canada? Driving into the country on the road? I've entered Canada before, but it was driving on the road that was legal while accidentally floating into Canada with no intention on being there, let alone staying there, is "100s of illegal Americans wash up in Canada"?

    If using the slightest bit of logic makes you "fun at parties", I'm glad I don't goto the same parties you go to.

    If you didn't enter Canada through a customs check point and without proper documentation or clearance, then yes, you have entered Canada illegally.

    Just as if I were to drive over the border into the US without going through customs then I too have entered the US illegally.

    If you accidentally walk through the woods from NY or VT into Quebec and get caught by border patrol... yeah it's illegal entry and you will likely be escorted to the nearest border crossing for verification of identity before being released if you don't have a criminal record or prior offenses.

    Accidentally forgetting to pay gas before leaving the station - distraction or otherwise - is still grounds for being prosecuted... even if you had no malicious intent of any kind.

    Hey, if you want to get worked up over something that's nothing more than amusing that's your thing I guess.
