Hello NQE Enthusiasts,

Another challenge.

Passport Task

Let’s assume you are an agent of Customs and Border Protection (CBP) and are working a border crossing from the US into Canada.  Citizens from the US and Canada DO NOT need a passport to cross the border.  Assume for this scenario that all other nationals do require a passport.  

Write an NQE query that returns the  people in the list that require a passport, and who they are and where they are from.

Input:

List of people crossing

Bob Smith -  US
Zhang Wei - China

Jessica Northland - Canada
Wess Maple - Canada
Peter Volkman - Germany
Jeremy Clarkson- UK
Rachel Riley - UK 
Scott Ramirez - Spain 
Gabriel Martin - France
Kazuko Hashigawa - Japan
Thomas Bouchard - Canada

 


Hint: Use lists (item in list) and Comparisons
