    I crossed at Emerson last week and was asked for my number. I was tempted to say sorry I'm happy married but he didn't look like he had a sense of humor.

    Anyone else having problems with certain points of entry?

    I crossed in Windsor, ON for the first time and I got to the booth and apparently it's required to be worn prior to pulling up to the booth. The officer gave me crap about it and put some note in the system about it.

    Crossed next week in Sarnia, ON which I crossed multiple times before with no mask and same #### thing. Got even more crap from the officer, I told him last time I crossed here there was no such requirement but he didn't want to hear any of it. Told me I would be fined if I didn't wear it next time.

    Crossed in fort Erie, didn't want to hear anything so I had my mask on before I got to the booth. Got there and the officer told me to remove my mask so he could see me better.

    The #### is going on?

    I cross at the Sault weekly and never once asked to wear a mask. I steer clear of sarnia and Windsor.

    It is a federal mandate now. Face covering to be worn before you reach the booth, at all times when in the cbsa office. You must use hand sanitizer upon entry in the office too.

    The sign is on the door to the commercial office. Can’t take a picture. I’ll see if I can find something.

    That was posted may 29th. Old news. Really depends on the officer you get at the booth. Once again no consistency within customs.

    Do you think your phone number will be purged from the system. They will track you forever.

    Not worried at all. If your concerned, give them a fake number.
