    Are you a son that I don't know about?

    Here's the road and bridge at ten mile pre-1980. A steep and narrow pull up the east side.

    The current company I work for pulled a load out of Ohio to Toronto which when searched at the border (Sarnia) contained heroin between the back skids.

    Tractor & trailer was seized by CBSA, driver was detained but released the same day. It sat at the border for a few weeks until the investigation was complete. In the end the company and driver were cleared of any wrong doing. I'm not sure what happened after that, I never asked.

    The truth is we all probably have pulled drugs unknowingly, my trainer at challenger told me the same thing as well. It's why I always fill out the CTPAT forms before I cross the border.
