The ticket says RCMP Deas Island, but a CBSA officer issued it while he was still in the USA! The badge# is CBSA as well (6 digits) instead of RCMP (5 digits).
Needless to say he is disputing it. Since when do CBSA officers have the authority to issue RCMP tickets to cars that aren't even in the country yet???

So if he went to dispute it in court, who would be the one to even show up? A CBSA officer, acting as an RCMP officer?
I think that'd get thrown out in 2 seconds.
