I was interogated several years ago after admitting that I was enterning Canad to conduct "Training" for electrical contractors. This was all about taking work away from Canadian Union workers. Took about 2 hours at the border crossing. Anyway, they finally let me in, but when I quizzed one of the girls behind the counter she indicated that the info on me came back that I was one of the "Good Guys". Questioning that, she told me that they had a direct hook up with the American FBI data base.
So I said, well then you probably know that I have a US Dept. of Energy security clearance for NUK plants.
Yes, she said
"But you probably don't have anything else", I said.
"Well, your fingerprint file is there also" , she said.
Great, the only time I have been fingerprinted is for CCW licence in Arizona. I thought the FBI was supposed to read them, report back to the state, and then delete from their files. Apparently, when they give the infor to the state on your histrory, your prints remain in the system.
Anyway, just so you know.
