OTTAWA - The U.S. is scheduled to start flying an unmanned and unarmed drone over the U.S.-Canada border Tuesday, a U.S. Border Patrol spokesman tells Canwest News Service.
Juan Munoz-Torres of U.S. Customs and Border Protection says the Predator drone will survey a 370 kilometre stretch of the Manitoba-North Dakota border at about 20,000 feet. The drone will fly no closer than 15 kilometres from the border, said Munoz-Torres.

A single drone will be surveying the border at first but "in the future we may have more, it will be determined as we move along with this operation," he added.
The drone is equipped with hi-definition sensors that can spot an object as far as 35 kilometres away, he said.

To date the Border Patrol had been testing the readiness of the drone, which will be flying out of Grand Forks, N.D.
The launch of the drone flights is taking place as the U.S. Department of Homeland Security has asked for a review of vulnerabilities along the world's longest undefended boundary.

It's about time they kept an eye on those shifty Canadians.

Canadian cannabis, perhaps? But I would guess that would move in plenty through the regular high traffic zones, not out in the donga.

Bullshit Canada?

We must monitor them for a potential invasion. Or maybe a potential exodus.

From the SP archives:

"In French Canada, the occupants are described as "a little odd", and tend to drink wine heavily and dance about usually singing the song "French Canada" which claims the area to be "the best Canada in the land" and the other part of Canada to be "a bullshit Canada".
