[Talk-us] How to tag US/CA border crossing telephones?

[Paul Johnson]

Wow, didn't think there was any of these left, though I'm aware of a
similar situation in Victoria where my last visit (pre-9/11) was greeted
with a sign on the top of the Government Street pier that said we needed to
call 1-800-CAN-PASS.  A customs officer ran down the street from one of the
government buildings to meet us...
