"Just"?  That would be a HUGE deal.........

Yeah, it's a huge deal.  They are talking about closing the border, and building a wall, and Canada is going to pay for it.

They don't have Global Entry kiosks?

 

 

I haven't been through CLT since summer 2017 and have zero intent on ever going through that horrible place again, but when we went through, we were all herded through like cattle - with everyone else. Global Entry doesn't mean tripe there. (well, it didn't back then.) But for me it's other reasons not going there again. I'd fly to Canada on my way to Florida if I could avoid CLT.

Odd 40x52=2080?

Every year has 52 weeks plus one day.  Leap years have 2 extra days, so it makes sense to use a number greater than 2080.  In 2019 the extra day is a Tuesday, in 2020 there are 53 Wednesdays and 53 Thursdays.

We're the ones that want to build a wall at this point.

The forts in San Juan PR remain open.

 

For those wanting to visit El Morro in San Juan, PR, it remains open by using the entry fees to pay for staff.

I’m not sure the Canadian friends we see here each winter in Florida would agree with you.

365/7 = 52.14

 

52.14 x 40 = 2085.6

 

And has been mentioned, there are leap years.

Understand but don’t weeks never change?  A work week is 40 hours?  I wouldn’t say our Government is always correct. Lol
