Amidst considerable program policy implementation and advancement, the struggle between security and border efficiency remains a concern for both the U.S and Canada. Post 9/11 border efficiency has become fused with security – a major challenge for both commercial trade and the movement of respective citizens. This policy paper provides a synthesis of current and future challenges of Canadian-U.S border efficiency. It also provides key recommendations for policy and program implementation, a framework through which post 9/11 border thickening can be controlled.
