I find it doubtful that a group of volunteer citizens would have been any luckier than a former attorney with a border patrol badge. I believe it was also watchful citizens at our borders that detected unusual activity on the Canadian side that led to finding a tunnel crossing under the border.
I honestly don't have a problem with citizen involvement at our borders as long as they remain in a solely reporting capacity.

Dude, hate to tell you, anyone is "able to leave Canada" by simply hopping in their car and driving to the boarder.
It's not up to Canada to catch them leaving, it's up to whatever country to catch them entering.
All this guy does is prove that the system worked.
The same goes for those leaving the USA. The US gov't doesn't care about people leaving the US, doesn't search them, doesn't ask them a single question. They collect the toll before you cross the bridge and that's about it.
