What does paperwork matter if the CBSA agent can't identify if that coral on the CITES re-export paperwork (with original CITES import paperwork stating a Acropora sp. was imported from Bali legally into the United States)?
It's been my gripe with the system from the start. Easily manipulated.
But for non-CITES corals, best you can do is bring a copy of the CITES permit with proper Appendices and then photo examples of the coral you're trying to bring in to Canada. Demonstrate they are not CITES restricted and cross your fingers. Honestly, most CBSA agents don't fret over it too much as long as you're sure of yourself.
