Discuss the potential consequences and public opinion on the increase of powers for US Border Protection agents in pre-clearance and their presence on Canadian soil.
Perhaps the point of this article is the focus in the comments.  There are NO comments made supporting the increase in powers for US Border Protection agents in pre-clearance.  NONE  Given that fact, perhaps the Canadian Senate will sent this piece of legislation on its way to where it belongs.. the trash!  I understand that the movement of trade needs to be speedy and smooth.  But tourists?  Really?  If you are indeed a tourist, you should always have the right to change your mind and be a tourist elsewhere.  This potential piece of law is garbage and should never have been passed in the first place.  I think it's time that this government wakes up and gets in touch with the voting public.  We don't want to get any other nation power on our own soil.  Period. Pointe finale!!
