US Border agents are already operating on Canadian soil in the trucking industry.

..."not worried that either country wants to question sovereignty.." This from a Canadian. Seriously??? The u.s. is literally questioning & trying to undernine our sovereignty every day. This is a bad idea & a hard no. Our p.s. minister needs to state that. Enough already.
