You have a list of reasons to avoid France? Actually, come to think of it, I have a list of reasons to avoid France too, and that list has one item on it: they're a bunch of racists! Back about a dozen years ago, actually around the time I was getting married, I was transiting through Paris Orly airport. I got detained just before I was about to board my next plane. The only reason I could think was because of my slight tan, and a beard. As I presented my Canadian passport, they start inspecting my passport with a jewel magnifying glass, to make sure it wasn't fake or something. When they couldn't find anything wrong with my passport, they then demand another piece of ID! Who needs another piece of ID when you have a passport? So I'm trying to figure out what I could give them, would they take my Ontario driver's license, or something, that only used to work when going to the US, what could people in France do with an Ontario license? Then I realized that I had my previous expired Canadian passport with me too, so I gave them that, they inspected that, and I guess that verified that my present passport was good. Before that I had no trouble with customs anywhere else in the world, even to the US.Eddie said:
