"On July 16, Kraig Jacobson, a Utah college student, was 10 days into a cross-country motorcycle trip when he neglected to tell a Canadian border guard he was carrying a 38-calibre handgun during a quick jaunt to Niagara Falls, Ont. Four months and $10,000 later — and with friends back home launching a “Free Kraig” campaign of T-shirts and petitions calling for his release — the 26-year-old was freed from Canadian custody in early November. The National Post’s Tristin Hopper called Mr. Jacobson in his Alpine, Utah, hometown to get the details of his unwitting brush with Canadian law."
