I was being bitched at by the border guard in November. I was 3 days late with getting a new Visa waiver, to replace the one that expired 3 days prior. I had no reason to cross the border anytime sooner, so I didn't. He told me that I was now an illegal alien in the US (I was still at Canadian soil) and that he shouldn't even let me in.
I guess he forgot that the Canadian border guards ring my passport through the computer with a date stamp too. It was really upsetting.
Be happy you didn't get these sorry excuses for border guards.

two women from Windsor and Milton, Ont. — both frequent travellers to the country and holders of Nexus cards and Visas — claim they were strip-searched in an inappropriate manner while travelling together across the Ambassador Bridge on March 5, 2010, to attend a music concert.
They allege the guards penetrated them with their hands and fondled them “in a prolonged, deliberate manner.”
One of the women was eight months pregnant at the time.
