Border Crossing Changes
U.S. Customs and Border Protection (CBP) plans to introduce a system for photographing vehicles exiting the U.S. at border crossings, matching images with travel documents to confirm identity, though no implementation timeline has been given. This expansion aims to enhance national security and address concerns regarding outbound traffic, especially as Canadians express unease about traveling to the U.S., with a recent poll indicating that 52% feel unsafe and 54% feel unwelcome. The initiative follows recent reports of increased inspections at the Canada-U.S. border, further contributing to Canadian apprehension.
