An American who tried to cross into Canada last weekend appears to have drowned in the St. Croix River in New Brunswick.

A body found floating in the river near the St. Stephen, N.B., border crossing has been identified as that of Chad Lamphear, 31, of Tennessee.

On Thursday, RCMP said Lamphear tried to get into Canada at St. Stephen last weekend, but was denied entry and returned to Calais, Maine.

Police believe he was trying to get into Canada illegally by swimming across the river. There was no evidence of foul play.

We need our own minuteman border patrol.

[lord of the mark]

if you dont stop the anglo wetbacks, soon you'll have to institute bilingualism

[Japher]

He was from Tennessee.

This is to be expected.

Thats retarded. Who would risk their life to illegally cross the Canadian border?

I mean that in the sense that no American will ever be given trouble crossing the border just saying they're a visitor. After which the individual can stay as long as they want, and the GOC in all probability will be none the wiser... unless he or she gets caught trying to work illegally - also unlikely.

Missed this bit. Any American who gets denied at the Canadian border is a ******. This incident was to be expected.

Maybe he just really wanted to see Moncton.

To be fair, if I was stuck in Calais, Maine then I might start to get a little bit desperate too.

[JimmyCracksCorn]

Yeah. The only thing comparably to Calais, ME is.... St. Stephen, NB.
