Trucking: New Inspections U.S. Canada Border Crossings
The U.S. started charging a new fee for inspecting Canadian trucks and railway cars.
Calling Canada a potential conduit for bioterrorism, Pestslinks and disease, the U.S. government is boosting its northern border inspection muscle - and making Canadian commercial shippers foot the bill. Via Globe and Mail

I can say that in Hawaiian airports they are very diligent in screening agricultural products.

Now Canadian trucks and railway cars will pay $5.25 per commercial truck per entry (or $105 a year), and $7.75 per railway car to have the U.S. government inspect their trucks and loads for bio-terrorism, pests and disease.

I say it is a good thing if it keeps all us safer and protects the environment.
