I love how the US/Canada border is claimed to be the "longest undefended border in the world". What exactly constitutes 'undefended'? Because it is always a pain in the ass to go across there, especially into the states. Meanwhile I have driven across the German/French border and all there was was a sign indicating you are now in another country. This on the border of two countries who have been at war three times in the last 140 years.
