Canada can dredge up old, minor crimes and stop you from entering their country. Hard to figure what prompted this report. From the Canadian point of view, it sounds like this has gone on for years, and they couldn't come up with any new stats that point to an increase in people stranded at the border. Sounds like a case of buyer beware, at best.

The decline of the film critic. Fewer of them and they possess a lot less influence.

Siskel...dead
Siegel...dead
Ebert...almost dead (for those of us who have him in the dead pool)Larry King...should be dead
And you wonder why there is a decline in the film critics.
