Umm, Mounties have always been armed. The regular customs folks however, are unarmed.

The Mounties took up positions at the border crossing because,

The Canadian Border Officers LEFT THEIR POSTS!!!

Apparently if a Canadian Border Officer fills he is about to be placed in a dangerous circumstance,
He can abandon his post.
It's in their union contract.

With Harper elected, they may be armed in the future.

"...  will not quit my post unless properly relieved."


Maybe these guys need some guard duty instruction, eh?

The CDN Border service folks aren't guards, they are customs tax collector weenies.

They are better than they used to be (little more than minimum wage clerks)

If they're responsible for controlling the border at those posts, it makes them guards.  Maybe not on paper, but in reality.
