I experienced it the exact opposite of what you described.
A friend bought an old bus in Bellingham years ago and asked me to give him a hand to go get it when I had a day off.
We drove to the border crossing south of Abbotsford.
U.S. customs asked me what the purpose of my visit was and I told them truth.
Nothing to hide and as far as I knew I was not doing anything wrong.
Half an hour later I was told I was being refused entry because I would be doing something/work that a U.S. citizen could do.
Ended up staying in Abbotsford while my friend drove down to get the bus, the guy he got it from drove it up to the crossing for him.
After that he drove his van across the border, walked back across to get the bus, drove it over then picked me up in Abbotsford, we went back to the crossing picked up the bus and were on our way after wasting half a day dealing with the process.
Would have supported the economy by stopping for lunch and done some shopping before we went back but clearly the chance that I might drive a vehicle state side for half an hour depriving a citizen of the work was more important than that.
