Generally speaking, when customers have concerns about their traffic
crossing borders, they do ask upfront.

As a multinational operator you can only guarantee traffic if customers
asks and offcours pays the fee for special class of service.

Hi,
We're looking to extend some services into Canada.  While our lawyers dig
into it, I thought that I'd ask the hive mind about border restrictions.

For traffic routing, is anyone constraining cross-border routing between
Canada and the US?  IOW, if you are routing from Toronto to Montreal, do
you have to guarantee that the path cannot go through, say, Syracuse, New
York?

I'm asking network operators about packet routing; data storage is a very
different matter, of course.

Thanks,

David
