81. On the other side of the coin, the Canadian dollar is worth more

which is, or was, a great enticer for Canadians to come down to the US to spend their money. But if they're going to get hassled at the border, or pay hundreds of dollars for a family to get passports when they weren't needed before, then a lot of Canadians will probably say to hell with it.

And border towns like Blaine and Port Roberts, Washington (not to mention Bellis Fair Mall in Bellingham, Washington), will probably be hurting big time from the new rules.
