Canadian border guards will be armed (http://www.canada.com/cityguides/halifax/info/story.html?id=3c02ab5c-0c78-43a9-b216-baee4ad8b4bb&k=93284)
I seem to remember a somewhat heated thread about this very matter previously:
The Conservatives had indicated earlier this year that they intended to arm border guards, following a number of border incidents in which guards left their posts when they felt threatened by reports of armed fugitives headed their way from the U.S.So they're finally going to arm them instead of having to flee when threatened? Congrats to the Conservative government... except it's going to take 10yrs to do it!?! ~:confused:
