Default Re: Gunmen Attack National Guard Border Patrol Site in Arizona

The word Invasion, I believe, can me any number of people.
Can I ask what the unarmed Canadian border patrol agents would do (throw buffalo chips)? Or did Canada finally arm their own agents?

I was totally shocked a few month ago when crossing the border, to find out that Canadian agents are unarmed, and have to rely on the OPP ( in Ontario) for protection. Here they were, searching me and my vehicle for handguns, and they were armed with Mace and a billy club. Strange a country does not even trust their own law enforcement to be armed, but then again, Canada is just a colony of Great Britain, and most Bobbies are unarmed; as well as all their citizens on the islands.

Well, I guess they will be armed...eventually:
"CEUDA Pleased the Government is Honouring its
Promise to Arm and Double-up Border


AUG 31 ... Today’s announcement by the Right Honourable Prime Minister Stephen Harper that the New Government remains committed to arming Officers at the Canada Border Services Agency (CBSA) and to doubling-up one-person shifts comes as welcome news to the Customs Excise Union Douanes Accise (CEUDA), which represents 9,000 members working in CBSA."

Good to hear, Canada is not identical to Mother England.
