I am an independent systems consultant and a Canadian citizen.  I am being given
the opportunity to take a short term (2 week) contract in the U.S..

In the past, I have heard of people having trouble crossing the border to work.
I have also heard, however, that the Canada-U.S. Free Trade Agreement was going
to phase out barriers to professionals crossing the border on business.

Has anyone been in this situation recently?  I would appreciate any advice you
may have on whether or not there are any problems with Canadians working for
short periods in the U.S., and if so, what might be done to resolve these
problems before reaching the border.

Thanks in advance.
