Crossing the Border at Windsor/Detroit

Here is a link to a video clip from the Canadian news broadcast, The National, that appears daily on CBC television. It shows Jody Orr, a Challenger Motor Freight driver, taking a load from their Cambdridge, Ontario terminal to the border at Detroit, Michigan. This driver speaks in a very articulate way about the challenges and frustrations of trying to cross the busiest border point in North America. The clip also contains an interview with a shipper, Casco, that highlights some of the issues they are facing in light of the tightened security and additional processes brought on by 9/11. It is definetly worth a watch. When you open the clip, move the cursor ahead to 37 minutes and 21 seconds, the starting point of this piece. Since the news broadcast changes daily, make sure to dial in somtime on Wednesday, March 19. It is definitely worth a watch. Enter this address into your browser.
