legislation in the Canadian Senate

Both Mr. Runciman and Mr. Brown have introduced legislation in the Canadian Senate, and in the Canadian House of Commons, that would exempt U.S. pleasure boaters from reporting when they enter Canadian waters as long as they don’t disembark, anchor, moor, make contact with another vessel or import goods.
The proposal would also exempt Canadian pleasure boaters from reporting to their own customs officials when they return to Canadian waters, as long as they met the same conditions while in U.S. waters.Mr. Runciman said the Canadian law as it is now written is unreasonable.
