Ok HiJack time.
This is what happened the last time I went to Ontario. I will not make a second attempt for fear of Mr. Super Trooper being on duty again.
This is copy and pasted from my account on a Jeep Forum.

First of all I need to find out who set me up at the border crossing because I got the Fifth degree!!!!!!! As I have some allergies and sinus problems, I take a prescribed nosespray. I took a dose about 30 minutes before hitting the border and some of it must have gotten on my hands. So I was a little bit sniffily and here is the weird part. I pull up to the window go through the normal stuff. They fill out this form and ask me to park the jeep around the corner and go into immigration. The guy who I needed to see was out at a late lunch so I had to wait 15 minutes for him to come back. He does his thing, asks me for identification, asks if I have ever been arrested and so on. He is kind of dry but I actually do get him to crack a smile. So then he fills out this paper and gives me back my license. I go over to another guy who walks me to my vehicle to inspect it and asks me what I think are normal questions. Do you do drugs, are you carrying any drugs? I of course say no
then they repeat it and the guy says, when we ran your license it came up positive for amphetamines!!!!!
At this point I have a blank look on my face and I ask, what are you talking about and how do you get information like that for running a license? He replies back, we did it twice and it came back positive both times. He then explains that what they did was take my drivers license and swabbed it with a Q-Tip and then tested the Q-Tip. So they asked me
again, do I do drugs and this time I reply no, but I do take prescription nose spray for allegies and I told him I thought he was joking about my license. I am sure the guy didnt believe me because they tore my jeep apart at this point. I had to take everything out, explain to them what it was, explain that I wasnt selling it in Canada,
explain again that I wasnt selling it in Canada,
Tell them it would be coming back with me,
and once again for good measure,
tell them I wasnt selling it in Canada.
Almost an hour later, I was NOT in handcuffs, completely frazzled, had a killer headache and was on my way to my friends.
