So I went up to canada to go biking at whistler and got randomly pulled aside for an inspection. I left my cell phone in the car.
So after about 20 minutes the big tough border patrol come in and take me into a tiny room. I'm pretty damn nervous at this point and they say "We noticed that you have quite a bit of txt messages on your phone about the sale of narcotics" and my favorite "what is simpson oil" (my grow partner txted me before I got to the border "hey I might have left some simpson oil in your glove box you dont want to cross the border with that"
I explained that I am a licensed medical MJ provider and that those txts were likely my patients. I don't have any narcotics what so ever on me.
So then they "request" the password for my laptop. When I asked why they said "what is the password". Knowing that the border patrol has pretty much free reign to fuck with you as they see fit. They left for about an hour then came back with my laptop and had even created a nice new folder with all the pictures of my various grow rooms and proceeded to ask my all kinds of questions. I have to admit that even though I wasn't doing anything wrong, I was certainly stressed the fuck out. My friend was detained for 6 hours and stripped searched becasue he was in a gang in chicago 22 years ago. They eventually denied him access to the country.
SO the long story short.. if your crossing into canada you would be wise to deleate all txts about growing or selling and get rid of the pictures on your hard drive of MJ plants and grow ops!!!!
Cheers.
