Loading ...US toughens passport rules, required for entry from Canada, Mexico
September 5th, 2006
The Department of Homeland Security and Congress have moved to make entering the United States more restrictive by requiring passports to be used for travel from the Caribbean to the US, Today’s Wall Street Journal reports.
The new rules begin January 8th, when citizens entering the US from the Caribbean by air or sea will be required to hold US passports. In January 2008, the same requirement will be put in place for travellers entering the United States by car from Canada or Mexico.
I can’t imagine this being a permanent measure, doesn’t quite follow the NAFTA, North American Union, Globalization plan. This is likely just one of many politically motivated gestures from Congres in the build-up to the mid-term elections.
