&gt; Our state broadcaster, the CBC, had an interesting story on the effects<br/>
<br/>
&gt; of new US border security on the people who live in Point Roberts, WA.<br/>
<br/>
&gt; <br/>
<br/>
&gt; It has become a real hassle for them:  the special PASS lanes have been<br/>
<br/>
&gt; closed, and the line-ups are long.  It can take 4 hours to cross from<br/>
<br/>
&gt; Canada to Blaine at the Peace Arch crossing.  A problem if you&#39;re a kid<br/>
<br/>
&gt; who lives in Point Roberts but must attend school in Blaine, WA -- by<br/>
<br/>
&gt; make 4 border crossings a day to go to class -- including 2 at Peace<br/>
<br/>
&gt; Arch.<br/>
<br/>
&gt; <br/>

<br/>
& since i really am considering how best to join up with you for the gcebe movie premiere at point roberts beach i am wondering in earnest if there isnt a ferry or water taxi from blaine to point roberts that would obviate any necessity to risk my stash & wad & freedom<br/>
