The president of the Chamber of Commerce in Blaine has only one word for it: "Dumb."
The U-S government is mulling a new fee to cross the Canada-U-S border.
Bob Boule says this idea comes up every once in a while and it's never well-received.
"People coming down to the malls, going shopping, going out to dinner.
U.S. citizens going up to Vancouver and the different activities.
To try to slow that down, from the commerce side, just doesn't make sense."
He says he plans to talk his local politicians to try and them to put the proposal back on the shelf.
