I once flew a light plane to Lethbridge to clear customs. It took at least a half hour to convince the customs man that I was not taking all sort of illegal 'gifts' to Canadian friends. He found it unbelievable that I was a geology professor visiting a graduate student doing field work west of Banff, and didn't even have any friends in Canada. Oh well, I'll just have to wear an old button I have with my name and a picture of a shuttle on it.
