PM_Mama and I live in the same area. While I don't know her friend, I do know that everyone my age knows to bring your birth certificate when going to Windsor. Why? Because incidents like that happen ALL of the time. Just having a driver's license does not prove you are a United States citizen. Honestly, it makes me happy that she gave you sh*t because she was doing her job! Her job is to protect our country and if she let everyone in who "forgot" their birth certificate, there is a chance that she could let the wrong person in. And then everyone would be saying, "Well if he/she didn't have the proper identification, why were they allowed in?" Better safe than sorry, in my opinion.
My aunt is a customs agent at the border. Those people have to put up with so many drunken idiots. They also have to work 12 hour shifts. Sorry she was rude to you, but I bet next time your friend will remember her birth certificate. Chalk it up as a lesson learned the hard way.
