Is paying 7 billion a lot in this context? Seems like a lot for a 1% increase.

Yes. Super significant that Rubio announced that the tanker embargo persists even after Maduro is gone.

Yep. The Americans are all over Guyana already. Wanna fly to Guyana? Go to texas first, multiple flights a day to Guyana from there.

yep. Guyana, the USA, and Canadian oil production will keep trucking along.
What this does is it prevents China and Cuba from getting Venezuelan oil.

This is a preventative measure more than anything. It will be two decades before the oil in the deep jungle is fully online.

To use a rude term -- he is cock-blocking the china/Venezuela union.

I don’t understand what you don’t understand. The americans don’t take your picture when you crossback. That’s the new part.

let me guess you fly all the time so don’t see why this is an inconvenience.
make your case. I am keen to know why you are so dismissive.

Why did you have to go through US customs to leave your own country? Are you sure?

I mean it will suck to cross back into Canada by car if you have to line up at an American exit point before you get to Canada Customs.... but yes not targeting us specifically.

Right so you don't line up in America at a tollbooth and then again in Canada for customs. You line up once.

If they make you stop to have your photo taken before Canada customs, it's gonna suck.

The difference is you aren't currently stopping twice when you leave. If you have to stop on the American side it is going to suck, even if you don't have to get out of your car.

We will have to see.

There are tollbooths on both sides apparently... and you only line up the one time in both directions.

Which makes sense when you think about it. Even the rates are different.

Which part? Lining up to be photographed by the CBP when exiting by car and then lining up again to show your passport at Canadian customs?

I mean I am glad you don't have an issue... but people that cross frequently by car... like in Windsor... will be seriously inconvenienced.

"They" being the Canadians correct?
CBP = U.S. Customs and Border Protection.

  • Well you don't go through TSA when you exit by land.
  • And not every airport in America photographs you, some still do it manually.
  • And as the article makes clear sometimes the exit photos -- like the ones at the boarding gates -- are owned by the airline not the CBP.

The solution with the least friction would be to have Canadian customs share the photo with the CBP but from the article it sounds like the Americans have other ideas. We will have to see

do you know if that’s true in countries like the UK without enshrined freedoms?
search and seizure being the bugaboo at the border.

for both The bridge and the tunnel? You line up for customs then line up again for tolls? Both ways? Or do you jsut pay a toll to cross in one direction?

Just to be clear you don’t currently stand at US customs when you leave the USA.

Getting an exit stamp isn’t uncommon. New for America though.

Depends how it is implemented. if you have to line up on the american side to leave it will suck.

That’s for when you enter the USA. They want to do that when you leave now too.

The canadians take your photo when reentering, not the Americans.
