Rainbow at the End of the Tunnel

Apparently, the secret to our Canada bender is out. Federal agents busted "three to five" people related to an underground tunnel connecting the US to Canada just outside the Lynden border crossing. The tunnel was apparently very well finished, replete with wood slats and electric lights.

Komo had this to report:

The exact length of the tunnel was not known. It ran from a building on the Canadian side to a house on the U.S. side, 300 feet from the border, the source said.

A neighbor interviewed on the evening news indicated that two abandoned houses, each their respective side of the border, had apparently been under monitoring for some time now.

Despite the obvious conclusion that the tunnel was intended for moving drugs across (under) the border, Seattlest suspects instead that it was a modern Underground Railroad for those wishing to take advantage of the fact that on Wednesday, Canada officially legalized gay marriage at a national level.
