US Embassy in Canada

Post by CDN_Merlin »

I walk by it everyday comgin to work and it's a shame 9/11 happened because the security that is in place now there is amazing. To enter the undergroud parking, you drive in between 2 platforms that are raised from within the ground and then your car is searched thouroghly. Even the trunk, under the car, under your hood etc. Then the 2nd obstacle is lowered and you can enter. There are concrete blocks(like the ones used to divide highways) that block off 1 entire lane in front of the building and a fence about 16' high.

I'll try to take a pic tomorrow if it's not raining.

I'm posting this not to ★■◆● but just to say "it' a shame the world is like this."

Watch your back, if they see you take that picture you may end up in Guantanamo, or Abu Ghraib with panties on your head ;)

Canada's roads are nowhere near the condition of Detroit's.

Having been in both places, I am still oddly unable to interpret that :P
