Canadians are now required to show ID cards when crossing the border into U.S. Some claim it to be an unfortunate by-product of heightened U.S. Homeland Security; however, insiders at the White House claim that their past approach of distinguishing Canadians from Americans by simply talking with them in order to determine their heightened level of intelligence (as compared to their cousins south of the border) no longer works. Canadians are now coming across as just about as stupid if not stupider than their American counterparts.
