It is interesting that this article from a Canadian news source doesn’t have any mention of what Canada’s border policy is for comparison.<p>Canada’s customs may also confiscate or search a device with no justification: <a href="https://www.cbsa-asfc.gc.ca/travel-voyage/edd-ean-eng.html" rel="nofollow">https://www.cbsa-asfc.gc.ca/travel-voyage/edd-ean-eng.html</a><p>I don’t necessarily endorse the policy but I feel that it undermines the article’s point. It would be useful to know how common this practice is in other countries for reference.<p>> Canadians (and all travelers) are left to grapple with a sobering truth: crossing into the U.S. means surrendering more than just your passport.<p>So does returning to Canada I guess?
