CBSA VS Canada Customs

[cerealmaniac]

so i've had my packages opened by canadian customs before. they usually repackage my boxes with canadian customs tape. a couple days ago i got a package that was opened by CBSA and it was repackaged with yellow CBSA stickers and tape what are the differences between CBSA and Canada customs.. or is this just the matter of different tape?

Canada Border Services Agency is the current name of the folks who control the movement of goods into the country among other things. I would guess they were simply using up the old security seals before rolling out the new stuff.

yep...CBSA and Canada Customs are one and the same.....

Yup. Same thing. A turd by any other name stinks just as much.

I'd rather no tape at all, keep your grubby hands off my shit and at least pack it back properly

I'd prefer that option myself. Don't really care if they open and inspect the stuff. NOT BREAKING my stuff and repackaging it properly - yeah, I'm big on that.
