To the US Customs and Border agent.

To the US Customs and Border agent who badgered me.

To the US Customs and Border agent who badgered me on the day my Unicorn and I moved to Canada.

In addition to cutting me off when I was trying to explain why I was there by demanding I pull down my mask, and then asking me to pull out the correct paperwork and asking if I had anything to declare when I barely had time to process what you had just asked because you were already asking the next thing while I was obviously distressed and you kept
asking
asking
asking…

In addition to cutting me off when I was trying to explain why I was there by demanding I pull down my mask, you asked me if I “knew the consequences of giving up my US Residency.”

Or something like that.

I don’t remember the specific wording.

I was tired.
