Q For Quebec

The car pulled up the barrier.


"Morning Sir, can I see your passport?"


The driver handed it over. The Canadian border guard looked it over.


"Reason for travelling to Canada today?"


"Shopping, mostly."


The guard chuckled humorlessly. The driver continued.


"Can I ask what the hold up was? Not normally this busy this early."


"Oh, we had an idiot trying to smuggle maple syrup into the country and he had a gun so it got complicated."


"Oh, ok.


Wait, why would that affect this line?"


"He was trying to smuggle the maple syrup INTO Quebec.


Like I said, an idiot."
