Yeah, I just traveled overseas last month too and Canadian customs didn't stop me for their "random checks" either (which surprised me, since I thought it was "randomly check anybody who happens to randomly be black")...i didn't have any problems abroad, although in Cairo, one of the Egyptian customs dudes asked me where I was from...and when I handed him my passport, he said "no, not what passport do u have..where are you FROM"...when I said Somalia, he looked at me and just shook his head...felt low as shit man

I wanted to change his face on the spot....lakiin shit, they got an army and i don't
You might not be having any problems right now, lakiin that's all gonna change soon since America is opening up it's biggest domestic terrorism investigation since 9/11, and it's on Somalis. The days when u can slam ur passport on the table and talk about ur rights are long gone....the only right u'll have is "the right to remain silent since anything you say or do can and will be used against u in a court of law" etc. They're probably drafting something similar to the Patriot Act right now (Expatriate Act or some shyt).
As for Canada, anaa waso Canada but at the same time, Canada still has some influence in places like Ethiopia since they give them millions in developmental aid each year. The thing is, Ethiopia knows they can detain Bashir Maqtal but not Bill MacDonald and Canada will break their neck how quick they look the other way, every single time. Bashir Maqtal will likely be coming home soon inshaAllah, but that's only because the Federal Minister of Transport, John Baird, has a huge Somali population in his riding in Ottawa...and raaxaday ka qaadeen. I remember I attended some conference about Bashir Maqtal a few months ago on a Sunday morning, and John Baird attended the conference just so Somalis would leave him alone

If they keep the pressure on him, he'll eventually pick up the phone and call Meles Zenawi himself so he can finally get some sleep. When push comes to shove and the Ethiopians realize they're risking losing the support of a cash donor, they're gonna fallback and put him on the next flight out of Aids Ababa.
