Yesterday, I crossed the border back into Canada. Here is a condensed transcript of our conversation with the CBSA officer. During the entire conversation, she had a smirk on her face.
Officer: How long have you been gone for?
Me: About two days.
Officer: How much are you bringing back?
Me: About $350.
Officer: Any alcohol or tobacco?
Me: Nope.
Officer: Is there any reason that you're giving me the bird?
I look down at my hand, which is resting on the side of the card. The way that my fingers are spread out make it look like I'm giving her the finger. I quickly bring my hand inside the car.
Me: Oops, sorry about that.
Officer: Have a safe trip.
I've learned an important lesson in making sure that you place your hands in a "safe" position when crossing the border.
