Yes. VERY. I have encountered three people in the wild who actually believe that Alaska is an island. The best time was when I was traveling with my kid and they said we were from Alaska to a group of people in an elevator. One of the kids in the elevator said “can you drive to Alaska?”. the mom told then her , “they can’t drive to Alaska because it’s an island! and that’s why there at the airport!” To which the DAD replied “ARE YOU FREAKIN SERIOUS? WTF.” 
That was pretty good.

They built a land bridge. They even named it. Canada.

Hey, Canada is on top and Alaska is on the bottom, it’s even in the picture.
But what people don’t get is that the scale of the map means that bridge would have to be half as tall as New Mexico, which is like at least 5 miles, and also there’s no way the bridge would support the weight of the entire United States. C’mon people.

I have to mail my glovebox gun to myself when I drive through Canada because they hate freedom.

In Canada’s defense, that in significant part, handguns. If you keep a long gun with you, as long as it doesn’t hit their 10,000 J (7375 ft-lbs) muzzle energy limit — and if it’s in your glovebox, I assume that whatever you have isn’t doing that — and doesn’t hit their specific restrictions on upper receivers, you’re probably okay.
A NATO 5.56 mm rifle round looks like it has a muzzle energy of about 1.8 kJ.
That’d let you carry an elephant gun.
If you want a semi-auto rifle…goes looking

I imagine that one of those would be okay. Looks like the ammunition is sold in Canada.
