DO NOT CROSS THE BORDER WITHOUT
SQUAWKING THIS CODE.

* The FSS operator will give you a border-crossing squawk-code.

3. Set your border-crossing squawk-code.

* If you haven't gotten your border-crossing squawk-code call
Canadian ATC IFR Flight Planning at 1-888-987-2633 and request

I flew to Canada a few years ago, and didn't need a squawk code either direction. Is this something new since 9/11?
