[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]The Canadian Travel Advisory for Canadians entering the USA is thorough & well done. Excellent advice with good resource information.

Whether or not I would let a college student study abroad in Shanghai or Hong Kong next year would depend upon the then current political climate and would also depend upon the school and housing involved.[/quote]

Yes, it is. It does make the US sound like a bit of a hell hole though, doesn’t it? [/quote]

No, not to me. Everything sounds reasonable. Important to understand that pot is illegal under federal law in the US. Nothing in the travel advisory would deter me from traveling from Canada to the US if I were a citizen of Canada.[/quote]

Really? Obvious most Canadians know the US fairly well, but if you didn’t and read that with no personal context, I can’t see how you’d want to visit.

Crime 
Mass shootings and frequent gun violence 
Gang activity 
Terrorism threats

-getting locked up for weeks on end with no lawyer or phone calls
-getting deported to some random country you’ve never been to

Yeah, no one wants to come to the USA right now lol. [/quote]

You forgot the drug overdoses and homeless problems too. Asia is unsafe but the US is great! Go ‘Merika! [/quote]
