You've got to give them points for creativity.

That's got to be one long tunnel, all the way from Columbia to the USA. Those British people sure are industrious.

I'm confused, I get the Columbia jokes but why is this particularly funny. I'm not saying it's a heavy piece of news or anything but it's not funny just interesting.

It was in Aldergrove and they dug a tunnel to Lyndon, Washington. I debated writing out "British Columbia" instead of "BC"...but then I was lazy and didn't want to chance the title being cut off or something

Sadly, there are those Americans who think that British Columbia, because of it's name, is actually part of the British Isles and don't realize it is the westernmost Canadian province, and it borders Washington State (not to mention Idaho and Montana). I have met some personally. No offense to the 99.99% of you who actually paid attention to that split-second where they mentioned Canada in your geography classes...

Well, DH, you've still got to be kind of impressed with them. At least they know where the British Isles are. For American kids, that ain't too shabby.
