I just listened to a short radio interview with one member of the Canadian folk duo who were pulled over and questioned separately by US state troopers.
Zero doubt: It's not safe to cross the border.
"It was after the state troopers who had pulled them over receded from view that Cassie said, 'Well that was wild. He asked me ‘which do I prefer, Canada or America?'
"Maggie, who’d been taken to a separate cruiser for questioning, had been asked the same thing."
The interview isn't posted yet, but here's the story in print:
EDIT: Don't do the "scrub your phone" thing and store its contents in the cloud. Stay the hell away if you can. It is not safe.
@StaceyCornelius Maybe the police had distributed this poster they received using the new DOGE sponsored ID a criminal app? Thankfully ICE didn't take them into custody and they were allowed to continue touring the USA. #usualsuspects #capebreton #novascotia #celticmusic https://www.cbc.ca/listen/live-radio/1-14-day-6/clip/16135481-canadian-folk-duo-touring-u.s.-traffic-stop-got
