Re NO FLY LIST.

I'm a 79 yr old who recently went on a fishing trip to the Chilcotins... Great fishing !

My return journey took me through a small-town airport where a very significant security staff insisted that their equipment detected explosives in my luggage. What nonsense!

It was thoroughly searched (to reveal all my tackle and smoked trout). Then they searched me thoroughly, head to toe ! and subjected me to a grilling. (Why should Canada tremble with such protection).

After questioning I was told to take a seat. Later I had to ask where the washroom was. Before I could ask I was literally grabbed, and the head honcho proceeded to lecture me about the need for security. I pleaded with him to desist and to please tell me where the washroom was. He acceded.

I wonder if I am on your NO-FLY list now. Thank goodness I am Anglo-Saxon.
