Funeral mass will be on youtube.

Here's an article from when he retired from King's College.

I don't know if this is the best place to put this, but I'm sure RuthC will know what to do.

Anyway, his former radio station just announced that Father Tom Carten passed away today, from Covid-19.

Ewok, if I recall correctly it was about 5-7 years ago.

I ask because I had no trouble going to Vancouver on business in June 2008. Two weeks ago, going to Vancouver to board the Radiance, I had to go through an additional interview. When I eventually talked to an agent, she asked about some trouble their database said I was in, in 1986. I convinced her that it was mistaken identity, but I wonder where this bogus record came from. I'd rather not have to do that every time I go to Canada.

For Canada, it most definitely is a legal issue. They won't admit you if you have felony convictions.

 

Just an general FYI for anyone who might have something but think Canada won't find it. That may have been true in the past, but now Canada border agents have access to US criminal databases and can check US law enforcement sources real time and they routinely do.

Do you know when they started having access to US criminal databases?

BTW, the DUI laws vary from state to state.
