It was not the quantity of posts it was based on quality.
Only a few ROOGP are left on RS as most of the ROOGP got fed up of the BS that the new breed of Post Whores are putting up in here. | |

Yeah by all means that was allowed.
But it just aroused the CBSAs suspicions that this lady has brought in a significant amount of underwear for a 10 day stay. And they have the right to refuse entry to people, especially if they thought at the time that her VISA was expired.
And also, food with meat or fruits in it is not allowed in either, just an fyi |

2) Watch an episode or two of Cops, theres so many prostitutes 50+
3) The CBSA is supposed to have the upper hand. I'm working to get into the CBSA, and a friend who is already working at the CBSA told me that even if they see somebody they know, they still have to look professional and put on that asshole face. They can't show any weaknesses, the last thing we'd want is thugs flying in thinking they can manipulate the CBSA and getting into the country.
My dad was searched once and they basically flipped through his shit and didn't bother helping him put it back. Didn't throw it on the ground or anything but just caused a hassle. I'm sure theres more to the story than what she reported. I know she must've said something or done something to a CBSA officer to provoke such an action is they're actually "throwing" underwear on the ground (which I don't see is such a big deal) In my experiences, as long as I was nice to any authourity figure, they are nice back.
4) Again, they're taking precautions cause things similar to this has already happened in the past. Woman from Taiwan, comes to Canada, jumps plane, and can't be found anymore. Happened twice.
5) Things are supposed to be kept in a professional matter, if your teacher doesn't allow you to call up your mommy or daddy during class what would you do? Nothing. You can't do anything cause It's the classroom rules.
6) No, Canada is not that weak. But do you really want to be living in a city infested with drug dealers, prostitutes, rapist, murderers and child molesters running around who all came from other countries? And you know that thanks to the CBSA who didn't deport them initially when they could've but now you can't really do anything about them because the Canadian Justice System only gives out slaps on the wrist? |
The point is, there are more civil ways to do these things.
The customs want to put on asshole face, fine, but when you do a search or interrogate, at least be civil and act with some manners, by throwing a visitors things on the ground only shows how uncivilized canada is and gives the canadian a bad name. You will never see such behavior happening in asia, even in advanced countries like Japan, Korea, Taiwan and Singapore, so why here?
they way they are are just plain rude.

Oh, wait. Hangon a second. Wasn't it Singapore that executed an Australian guy for bringing some Heroin through the country? Not even TO Singapore, but THROUGH the Country?
Oh, But wait. That's civilized. Executing people for being drug mules. I forgot, they didn't take out his underwear and throw it on the ground.

I don't see how executing a criminal is not civilized. Pocession of Heroin is a very serious crime and is punishable by death in many East Asian countries, including Japan, Taiwan, South Korea, China and Singapore. This guy was a criminal and got what he deserved.
Whereas this lady is not a criminal, shes just a visitor from Taiwan traveling to Canada to see her relatives, yet she was treated like one, or even worse. If this is the way canada treats her visitors, I really think Canadians do have something to be ashamed about.

With all that underswear, she could be a prostitute or a mamasan.
If you treat me disrespectfully, of course I'm going to make you my bitch and throw your underwear on the ground  .

I got treated like shit by HK customs and Singapore customs.
Try going to germany. The guys will point submachine guns at you if you say anything stupid to them.
Bottom line. Our country. I don't know why taiwan is so butthurt that one of their citizens can't get in the country. The CBSA don't know who this lady was and they had their suspicions(sp)
Just to give you an example, a good friend of mine was flying down to seattle to visit his brother who is a pharmacist there (he hasn't had a job in over 7 years... just sits at home and day trades) and got refused entry with the basis that they think he's going to migrate to the USA.

also they did let her call but the woman said no one picked up so they took her cell phone away.
but still, that video is only based on the woman's story, if they get the custom officers to come out and tell their side of the story, then we can decide who's wrong Quote:
