Short of going to the Customs Office ahead of time and creating a Clarent (or whatever those damn things are called) is there a simple way to diffuse their fears that I might be an equipment export/importer or that I am poaching jobs from poor (!!!???) Toronto photographers?
(I live in the Mississipi of the North -- Appalachian Upstate New York -- and I find it ironic that they need to protect photographers in a sophisticated and very expensive city like Toronto. And this isn't a paying job anyway.)
