When I was living in Toronto, I got stopped in Montreal on the way back from Belgium, customs pulled me over and wanted to search my work laptop. I didn't care, it was a work laptop, but how long it took got annoying. The guy sat there for over 1 hour watching the progress bar move slowly like some sort of antivirus scan. Made me miss my connecting flight. Told him I had a work colleague waiting for me, he didn't care nor would he let me call them.
I asked for a letter to provide my employer saying I was checked and as a result missed my connecting flight, which will make me miss my pre-arranged car pool taxi from the airport as there will be additional expenses I would have to claim. I didn't really need it as work would believe me, but I wanted to see what he said. He just gave me some random pamphlet saying they can basically do what they want.
I assume they were looking for kiddie porn or some crap, all they got to see were work files.
