Canadian border guards at four crossings in the Lower Mainland of B.C. have walked off the job in response to a security scare.
[...]
The situation started in the afternoon when U.S. Homeland Security officials told the RCMP that a suspected killer from California, who should be considered armed and dangerous, might try to cross the Canadian border.

Canada's border guards are currently unarmed -- the Conservative government has promised a 10-year program to change that -- and have the right to walk off the job if conditions are dangerous. The guards exercised that right.
I've always had a masochistic urge to visit Winnipeg. I think I shall rename it Winnijib. I also like the sound of Jibmonton.
