US customs with mail from Canada

I know the US customs is kind of a joke (or so I have heard) compared to other countries, but does the US customs watch mail from Canada harder than other countries, like it does for mail from Netherlands, India, etc?

I have gotten medicinal seeds from canada and the Netherlands no problem.
Use a fictitious name and send it to an address where no scientific study is taking place if your worried.
DENY DENY DENY that package wasn't yours! and I don't even recognize the sender, right?
By the way Canada's genes are better the most of the Netherlands's strains were practically unsmokable, low THC and horrible flavor.

The US-Canada border is one of the most relaxed borders in the entire world. That being said, the US government has a stick up it's ass about drugs unfortunately.
The chance of it being detected? Minimal. But like Skippydude said, deny everything. Try and find a way to ensure that your payment cannot be connected back to you.
You should be fine though. US mail is rarely intercepted if the package is small and discreet.

Kill your house, burn down your name, and change your family. It's the only way to be sure.
Seriously, though, that does sound pretty bad. Check with the vendor and make sure it's sent. If all else fails, just ask them for some more seeds. They might say no, but it never hurts to try.

I had a large shipment of non-narcotic painkillers, soma etc over from India, took almost 2 months to get the damn thing. It appeared to be originally packaged in some sort of regular envelope with bubble wrap and ended up at my door a mess of packing tape barely holding the thing together.
Was only Tramadol and Soma but still geeked me out.

Got some glass petris from Israel.
The dumb ass that mailed them put them in a piece of that plastic grey 4" pipe that is used for electrical conduit(idiot).
When I got it 5 weeks later It was opened and all the dishes shattered.
The mail lady said "yeah, we thought that was a bomb at the post office"
It was probably destroyed by one of those tactical robots.

By "beans" you mean "delicious oven-dried, lightly salted Edamame beans that are completely legal", right?
Good to hear it.

A buddy of mine that lives in Toronto once sent me some seeds in a regular envelope with a bit of bubble padding to keep them from getting crushed,and get this,there were still seed bracts attached to some of the seeds.There were little pieces of weed mixed in too!When I opend it I could still smell the faint odor of dank,and how they made it through customs is beyond me!Needless to say,I got pretty damn mad at him for sending them that way,becuse I could have really gotten in some shit for that.At the time I lived in Florida,and they have the worst weed laws out of all the other states period,and you can go to jail just for a single seed in your car!I still don't believe that over 20 grams of weed,less than an ounce is a freaking felony

Weed gets through customs all the time no problem. You wouldn't have gotten in trouble for a tiny amount, so you should not have been mad at your friend for accidentally sending bits of weed.
