Ya, screw the EU. I'm not comfortable with looser customs arrangements with the EU since what little I know about them doesn't exactly inspire confidence. Plus, we're trying to convince our biggest trading partner, the US, that we're not an open back door to the US for illiegal and undesirable aliens, so where in that picture does it make sense for us to allow EU vistors into Canada without a visa? That's just bad for business, which between the par loonie and US protectionism is bad enough already.
