These blanket rules are so lazy IMO, just ban everything regardless? its not helping anyone. If the corals have paperwork, they should be allowed to pass. how is it ok to bring so much other shite across the border? give us some paper work to fill out... we will happily do it as hobbyists. These kinds of rules are like the covid closures, boat launches and all that closed, but go to walmart and walk the isles amongst hundreds of people? Broken systems made by lazy politicians.

I remember a few years ago CBSA in Vancouver broke up a smuggling ring where Asian families would be used to smuggle everything from exotic birds to fish to corals and everything else in between.

Only reason why I remember it this one family used their baby to smuggle in exotic fresh water fish that were hidden within the bedding of the babies carrier. Ended up they had several thousand dollars of smuggled exotics buried in their luggage and the ensuing investigation found an in-depth smuggling operation that the CBSA and RCMP and Chinese authorities broke up and several arrests were made. The family that was caught received everything from fines to jail time.
