Behind the scenes at two remote border crossings

Postby SarniaGrl » Thu Sep 17, 2009 2:23 pm

Another interesting read from Connect2Canada, wow.

•DHS planned to spend $31 million to upgrade remote border crossings
•The crossings are only 12 miles apart and get little to no traffic
•Laredo, Texas, by comparison, gets 66,000 crossings a day
•Laredo will not receive any of the $400 million in DHS border stimulus funds

it would appear I've lost my moderator abilities. I'll get Admin to delete.
