As every day goes by it gets even scarier going to the states. I know I won’t be going in my lifetime.

The devil is in the details. The US is just using the border as a development/testing pool of victims that have essential zero rights to protest or object to whatever is done.
Once perfected, this will be implemented by all US institutions - driving license, automobile registration, health insurance, and eventually every American will have their facial biometric on file. Get caught on any of the billions of surveillance cameras, instant recognition and identification. Post a photo in any social media platform, the government knows who you are. Critical of government policies? There will be no such thing as anonymity.This is truly ‘big brother’.
So, go across the border into the US? You are identified for life, and your movements can be traced, even in Canada through any social media post with your picture, by US agents. Even from a crowd scene photo.
I think >80% of US Americans currentlybhave biometrics on file. Anyone who got a photo ID got sucked up years ago.
Actually, I am a lot more interested in the daily hive. Has anyone experienced reading it long enough to detect its bias? Looks like an interesting independent Canadian news outlet, but little information on its financial backing.
I did a search. Seems Moses Znaimer owns it. Olympus Media. I am not the best at digging but this is where I ended.

My mom drove my brother and I in a factory converted camper, 67 ford econoline over 3 extended summers to about 40 states. It was a different time and culture that is totally unrecognizable today.
What a shithole. Can’t imagine I’ll ever go back now, glad I got to see some beautiful places before they completely gut them.
Sad to see what that country is becoming.
I honestly feel the same level of worry about going to the states now as going to china when that cell hone executive got arrested
I recently travelled for work to the US (air not ground), and I was able to opt-out of facial recognition. I’m sure that won’t be an option forever, but if anyone has to travel in the short term and is concerned, you probably can opt-out.
Not to downplay this, but you had to assume this and far worse was already happening, even before Trump 2
I stopped going in the 90’s when I drove to Florida for the umpteenth time since late 70’s and in almost every major city I went through had couches, garbage and a whole bunch of other detritus all over the highways. Just trying to enlighten others.
