Sunday, August 19th, 2018. Afternoon. Roxham Road, United States.
We arrived at the border at 2.25pm. Crickets singing, ragweed in bloom. Very quiet until 3.45 pm when a taxi arrived with a family of four from Nigeria. A man, woman and two teenage daughters. We offered them water but they already had their own bottles. At the same time a woman who introduced herself as a social documentarian who has traveled to many countries photographing non-violent protests. She took a photo of the family as they crossed (without incident). Soon after a single man of African descent came in a taxi and crossed quickly. At 4pm another taxi with a single man from Haiti. He also crossed without incident. RCMP officers respected their protocol.
