scary

He, he, I don't think something like this has a hope. You'd have to include dogs, cats, the list goes on. They'd be killing a huge industry. All those eccentric actors/actresses would have to give up their puppies with the fashion hairdos and pink highlights in their fur. Maybe they should consider banning non indigenous humans too, especially the wacky ones that keep coming up with this stuff.

I get a real kick out of the average schmoe not being allowed to bring some agricultural products, like an apple say, across the border between BC & Washington. Could be some pest or disease in there. Yet tropical fruits like bananas, pineapples etc. come into virtually every northern/western country daily. Who knows what lurks inside those shipping containers, despite the toxic pesticides they use to supposedly render them safe from hitchhikers.

Next time you go to the supermarket watch to see when they unload bananas.......
they usually wear gloves, ever ask yourself why?
Somehow I doubt that this will be high on anyones priority list given the certain real
problems facing the U.S. at the moment. Oh and Canada.

Yikes! That is scary. Lets hope that never happens.

This seems unrealistic considering it's a billion dollar industry.
