Just kidding, it's Canada. Does that make you less angry at it and, if so, why?

The Canada Border Services Agency (CBSA) has confirmed the use of DNA testing "when other avenues of investigation have been exhausted".

The agency could not confirm how frequently such techniques are used.

One Canadian immigration lawyer says he is personally aware of a handful of such cases.

CBSA spokesman Jayden Robertson said the agency uses DNA testing to assist "in determining identity by providing indicators of nationality thereby enabling us to focus further lines of investigation on particular countries".

"The CBSA obtains consent from the clients before submitting their information to DNA websites," he said in a statement to the BBC.


I didn't bother reading any further.

Nothing more pathetic than trying to manufacture a "gotcha" moment and failing

I'm legitimately trying to see whether people's level of outrage is more a factor of the issue or the country of origin. If I wanted a "gotcha" moment I wouldn't have made it a poll.

No, you don't. This wasn't an edit, as you can see in the first post. This isn't "oh shit I forgot to read the article". The purpose of the topic from the very beginning was to get people to come in here angry over the idea, and then have them question where that anger came from.

I was never mad. I don't see why this is so horrible unless the DNA samples are taken in a painful way

But why not just ask them where they are from
