In the recent past, literal thousands of Canadians have been denied entry to the U.S. simply for admitting they’ve smoked a joint once in their lives, but US Homeland Security and their “officers” of the CPB & ICE … have RAISED THE BAR …
Just 4 days ago, U.S. border “protection” barred a young Canadian woman from crossing the border when they found medical CBD oil (cannabidiol) for her extreme scoliosis pain … in her backpack … BANNING HER FOR LIFE from ever entering the USA …
For people who don’t know, CBD oil is a medical product from Hemp … It is a non–psychoactive natural product of the cannabis plant … used by the young Canadian lady to treat the great pains of scoliosis.
“… The woman, who has asked not to be identified by CBC News pending the outcome of an application for reentry, is the latest Canadian to face border troubles after Canada legalized cannabis last year.
Thousands of Canadians have been denied entry to the U.S. simply for admitting they’ve smoked a joint once in their lives. Others have been banned from entering the country for life for carrying cannabis products to the border — a punishment that this unsuspecting CBD oil user could now face as well, according to immigration experts. ”

The Consequences?
Many millions of ordinary Mexicans & Canadians … should now beware of entering … or even changing planes in the USA.

Here’s my recommendation: Stay out of the United States permanently.
Could I recommend a topic? My accounts are in the US. I access cash via ATM machines. To date, I have avoided US banks 3% foreign conversion rates by using Capital One which has NO withdrawal fees. Yesterday I was shocked when THE HSBC ATM machine for the first time in 9 years applied a 5.50% conversion rate ON Top of the normal 1 point rate adjustment. I will never use HSBC ATM machines again.
