Hello,

I'll be visiting Canada in January for a holiday of 5 days, and I want to take my Portable HD with me, it's got my movies etc on (I won't be taking my laptop), I'll be putting a back up of our flight tickets, insurance etc on the HD, as well as photos that we take as it can hold a lot more than the camera memory card, the hotel we will be staying in has Wi-Fi as well as a computer, and there is a library near by with computer access, mainly taking it as a back up for the tickets,insurance etc.

Do items such as these usually get inspected at the Airport in Canada (Pearson Airport) for what data they hold? Since I won't be taking my laptop with me I don't want it to come across as suspicious etc. Will it be ok do you think?

Thanks.

Assume that they will examine it in detail. They may even hold it for further analysis.
