It seems that if you have any criminal record for anything done since 18yrs old you may not be able to enter Canada.

Very timely submission (you beat me to the punch by a few minutes). It is a two way street though - the US government applies the same draconian measures to Canadians entering the USA.

Cheers - Dave

After a long flight in coach from Los Angeles, a jet-lagging passenger is being questioned by an Australian Customs Officer.
"Do you have a criminal record?"
"No, Is it still required? Embarassed "

Protecting your southern border, what a novel idea.

Marty P --

Sent your joke on to some Aussie friends, and they're laughing so hard they still haven't come up for air -- thanks for the good laugh to start the day.

Is Littering still at the top of their list of offenses?

I've set a few records, played a lot of records, but so far have avoided the "criminal" records...
