I was in Kingston in July '02. It might be another year before I have any excuse to visit again. Will you be coming to AC'05? I live just across the Delaware River in NJ.
I cannot find any news reports of people being arrested for arriving at a Canadian security checkpoint while carrying a pen-knife, although Canada bans "knives of any length" on airplanes. Nor are there reports of grandmothers being strip-searched in Canada, nor of Canada ignoring people's passports and deporting them to their countries of origin (from which they had originally emigrated in fear for their lives). All of these happen in the US with appalling frequency.
