"And what is your destination?" the Canadian Customs officer asked.

  "I am heading up the Alaska Highway" I replied.

  "Do you understand the distance?" he asked.

  The inquiry was void of any real concern -- obviously a standard line from   Interrogation 101.

  "Do you know Alaska's a friggin' long, long way from here?" he asked.

“Are you carrying any fruits or vegetables? Alcohol, tobacco or firearms?”  I replied NO but I was pulled over and searched anyway - civilians are not allowed to carry firearms in Canada.
