I have some questions about this Sentri pass.. Considering I may be going into Vancouver more often , because of the proximity to where I live, I would definitely like to get some type of pass that would ease the process of getting through the dreaded borders on both sides. I've determined that both the CBSA and CBP can be pretty hostile and many don't realize the border/immigration area is a special federal territory and you are not under any local US or Canadian law, but under federal law and the authorities have elevated powers that they would not have outside of these zones.
Anyhow, I am reading about the Nexus and Sentri pass. What is the difference between the two? It seems like the Sentri pass is for entering the US. Does the Sentri pass alone allow for easier access into Canada or do you still have to go through the same border crossing and procedures when entering Canada? I was reading that the Nexus pass allows easier access into US and Canada. Where I live, it appears many people have the Nexus pass as many Americans commute daily to and from work (or whatever) to Canada and many Canadian commute daily to and from the US, etc.
