A misdemeanor here is a felony in Canada, We found that out last fall, 4 hours later and a buddy of mine got escorted out of the Canadian customs by 3 ar 15 carrying officers, Their words were, come back thru that door and you will be arrested and put in a Canadian jail, Anyway the assault charge he had was dropped but couldn't prove it to them, They wanted someone to fax them the paper work stating it had been dropped, This is 1am in the morning. See ya, Your outta here. Yeah, I've been to the Algonquin.
