Turning 30 and a half: Nancy Drew and the Secret Tunnel

Nancy Drew and the Secret Tunnel

The discovery of a drug tunnel between Canada and the US has made the headlines this weekend. What surprises me most though is that it was so close to the Sumas Border Crossing. I used Google Earth to find the area and marked it. The border crossing is only about 500 yards away!

This border crossing is not new to problems. It's the same one that had two border guards targeted by drug smugglers in the last year. One border guard was arrested in May after being found to be coerced into transporting a load ino Bellingham.

The Silent Republican has some interesting thoughts as well.

I like to think it's an isolated one-off but who knows? Given the crackdown on the Hell's Angels last week, it looks like there is much going on under the surface that we have no idea.
