Which is why I like using the UK ATMs, they don't charge a fee when I'm there, but BOA here still gets their 1.50.........

Most ATM's in the US generally charge fees to non customers, because
they want to be paid for using thier machine and the associated costs of
the transaction. (Yes, it is profitable to do this at $1.50)

Additionally, most banks charge customer a fee to use another bank's
ATM, because they get charged for the transaction. Yes, WAMU does make
quite a bit of money from its domestic and international $3 charge for
this.

AFAIK, Etrade will charge non customers to use its machines. It won't
charge its customer's to use another banks machines. But, it won't
reimburse you for the fees. I had an account at AEACU where they
actually refunded the fees charged by other banks for using ATM's.
Presumably, this is because they:

1. Are a Credit Union
2. Don't have a great coverage area for ATM's

This was possible many years before NAFTA.
That is why my statement was in the present tense.

My point is that NAFTA didn't change it.

I think your point is just to argue.

No, you stated that the reason Canadians didn't need a visa was due to
NAFTA. This simply isn't true. NAFTA didn't change the visa requirements
for Canadians entering the US as tourists.

I didn't say that NAFTA changed the requirements for Candians entering the US as tourists...

You said "Travel between US and Canada is because of
NAFTA." The present travel policy was in place before NAFTA.

It's not common for me to agree with MrTravel but this appears to be clear
cut. You wrote:

We were talking about VWP. You correctly pointed out that Canada is not
party to the VWP. You then said travel is "because of NAFTA". This phrase
is rather bad English but we can assume that you were saying that instead of
using the VWP, NAFTA allows Canadians to enter the US as tourists visa free.
Without additional context it would be reasonable to assume that without
NAFTA you couldn't do this so MrTravel clarifies:

    > This was possible many years before NAFTA.

At this point your correct response should have been, "Yes, you are
correct". Instead you are rambling on about present tense, etc. but your
original posting was not correct enough to allow you to do this. Let the
matter rest - you wrote a sentence that was open to interpretation, just
acknowlege it (silently or otherwise) and move on.

You indicated that travel between the US and Canada was permitted
because of NAFTA. This implies that before NAFTA, you couldn't travel
between the two without a visa. NAFTA has nothing to do with this.

Rete,

How does your followup and to the purpose of the discussion.
If you want it ended, then ignore it.
I am only replying in response to the other poster's statements, which
are clearly incorrect. NAFTA has nothing to do with the ability of
Canadians to visit the US without a visa.
