Very often those waters are as far from the one wall of this Chamber to the other wall of this Chamber. It is important to understand that. But I do think there are two modifications to the bill before us that I hope will be made in conference that could significantly improve the legislation. One of the main complaints I hear about the current 168 program is that a United States citizen who is invited to go on a pleasure ride aboard a friends boat must first go to an immigration office to complete the 168 application and pay the required fee even for a onetime recreational excursion that never stops in Canada. This is crazy. This is crazy.
