I don’t think I ever shared this here but it’s been on my mind. When I drove to Toronto last month I had no issues at the border but when I returned to the US the agent did ask me what my nationality was, which I thought was odd considering he had my passport in his hands and it states my nationality. It made pause though, which was probably the point.
We need to be on alert at all times.
