Why is it important?
I examine some to the factors that have caused changes in border procedures so that we can better understand how we got to the place we are today and what we can realistically do to make constructive changes.
Perspectives
My perspective is that of a Canadian who understands the reaction of American authorities to 9/11 but wants to explore new technologies which can address the concerns for robust security while at the same time facilitating faster crossing times which increases economic benefits for both countries.
