[pct-l] Canadian Entry Permit Denied

[Oliphant, Matthew]

Just to clear the air, I am not a pedophile or a drunkard.  However, I do have a funny story about a drunkard at VVR.

At about midnight, a fellow hiker arrived at his bunk in the communal hiker tent from drinking at the bar.  He passed out and then awoke an hour later to address his bursting bladder.  Standing INSIDE the tent he proceeded to firehose the inside common area of the tent and one unfortunate sleeping hiker's gear.

I was wide awake and stunned.  I couldn't believe it.  Another guy stood up to confront the drunkard but chose not to charge Irrigation Man.  My girlfriend was also awake in her bunk (lower bunk, closer to the line of fire,) equally stunned...  Irrigation Man returned to fall into his bunk and struck his forehead on the steel headboard of the bunkbed.  Karma knocked him out that night.

The second bladder movement several hours later made its way thru the tent door and onto the landing.

In the morning, I wrote a message on the VVR message board voicing my displeasure.  When the office opened They quickly erased the message and sent room-service to investigate.  I was in the tent when room-service arrived to inspect the damage.  He said, "I hate this part" (???) as he bent down to smell the moisture.  His vehement conclusion was that it was dog urine despite the fact that there were three witnesses.

Turns out that Irrigation Man was working at VVR in exchange for free beer.

I will not stay in another communal tent (especially at VVR.)

Regards,
Matthew

Back in 03 i remember a few folks who did not have DUIs but were still denied entry and some cause of passport issues so as Yogi says "better to not send for a permit if you "think" it might raise a flag. If they Deny you and you get caught its worse then going in and then just getting kicked out

Has  anyone else been denied entry to Canada this year?  I just got my smack down in the mail for previous ...um...  criminality.




As more and more old files are added to the database, Canadian  entry will provide a lot of surprises.   A friend of mine who is 50  plus and lives in Vermont not far from the Border has been going in and out  of Canada for years with no problems. Last year he was denied access. It seems  as a very young man he was in New Oleans and got involved in a fight. He was put  in jail and held a couple of days and then released and told to leave. He went  back to Vermont and has never had any problems since. It seems when he was  put in jail charges were filed and when he was released, no one bothered with  the paper work. 
They just told him to get out of town.

Anyway he is now spend money to straighten out the  mess.
