Don't kid yourselves. Border guards are NOT your friends, even if they smile and shoot the shit. It's all a tactic to pacify you into saying something you normally shouldn't. They are trained to look for the ques and the emotion in your voice. Only answer when they ask, otherwise say nothing.

We were staying outside of Detroit in our MH and decided one day to visit Windsor, because I had never visited Canada. We took our P/U and when we arrived at the border crossing the Customs Official started to ask us the same kind of questions. This particular officer was not friendly, never once smiled, and actually had a hostile demeanor. When she got to guns or weapons, she proceeded to read us the riot act that guns were not permitted in Canada and it was illegal to bring them it. I told her that we did not have any firearms or weapons. She ask us a few more questions and then reverted back to the firearms question and reminded us again that it was illegal to possess firearms in Canada. I told her that we did not have any firearms and that I was aware that it was illegal in Canada. A few more questions about where we were going to visit and then back to the firearms, again reminding us that it was illegal for the third time. At this time I told her that I did not possess any firearms and that I changed my mind about visiting Canada. She told me we could not turn around at this point. She finally waved us through. I immediately drove around to the US border and crossed back into the US. Never have visited Canada.

@@randym8393 Police or border officials are not your friends but doing a job, namely in this case to protect the border and/or bring in fines. The string of questions is to catch people in inconsistencies which leads to more questions to trap the unaware or guilty. As others here point out, it's best to keep answers short and to the point and not proffer extraneous information that possibly could lead to trouble. Of course be polite and patient even if it is a waste of your time.

Oh c'mon that crossing was painless. We are Canadian and crossing into Maine can be "REAL" fun. Last time (and I mean VERY LAST TIME) we crossed on our way to Florida handed the US border guard our passports and the siren and lights went off, then guns were drawn and we were ordered out of our Rav. They were about to hand cuff my wife when the 1st guard said that would not be necessary and quietly told me we are looking for someone with a similar name but I know it's not you. After about 2 hrs of questioning and sitting on a cold marble slab they said we could leave. No oops we are sorry. No explanation. Just here's your keys the car is over there. A simple sorry for the delay would have been something but did NOT happen. PS The guy they were looking for had a vastly different "skin tone" from ours. Nowadays I fly over rather than step foot in that Police State. USA.

In my opinion "skin" and other social signaling devices are not much of a factor contrary to popular expectations. I am South Asian, and my comment is based on my experience traveling back and forth into the US and back to Canada for over 25 years. It is true soon after 911 I got pulled aside "randomly" at airports more often than I would like, but then again I appreciated why I had to endure this. In the special search rooms, majority of my fellow "searchees" were perplexed white senior citizens, many of them wheel-chair bound.

Aside from the typical questions regarding alcohol, tobacco, firearms, cannabis, etc., the only other thing they asked for (and confiscated) were my fresh eggs (about 4 of them) and, coincidentally, upon my return to the U.S. a month later, they also confiscated my fresh eggs (again, about 4 of them). Both ports said it was due to the bird flu.

The only problem we had crossing the border was the cat! They asked who was in the rig and we mentioned the two dogs (we had all of their papers as well as for the cat) but we forgot to mention the cat and they asked what or who else was in our rig. Steve and I looked at each other and realized we hadn’t mentioned Jack, our cat! They knew that there was something or someone else that we hadn’t mentioned in the rig. There was some kind of heat sensor that saw Jack! We were so embarrassed! Thankfully the border patrol agent was really nice about our gaff and Jack was allowed in! By the way, we loved Canada!

Just a tip, dont say you're a full timer or that the RV is your home. Their first assumption is that you'll never go home. Say where you're *from* or whats on your license and leave it at that. Know where you're going and for how long, be prepared for odd ball questions to verify what you're saying and doing. Its like that regardless which side you're crossing. I just went over to see an RV for sale and the guy had me pull up the ad and talk to him why I wanted that specific rig.

As a commercial driver I crossed the border from New Brunswick to British Columbia so many times I can’t remember. The New Brunswick crossing is one of the easiest. It’s more difficult getting back into the states than it is going into Canada. My passport was stolen had it replaced and for about six months I was stopped coming back into the states and would have to wait for 15 to 30 minutes making sure I was not a terrorist.

By my experiences travelling to the States from Canada, this was an extremely polite, short and relaxed stop at Customs. My dad once tried to go into the States at Port Huron, Michigan. He ultimately was meeting a friend in Myrtle Beach, but planned on sightseeing on the way, with no particular plan. He told the Crossing guard that, and after being grilled about exactly what stops he was planning, which he had no plan, he was turned away. He then tried again at the Marystown crossing, just south, and was again turned back. He ended up by foregoing his sightseeing and meandering and just produced his reservation in Myrtle Beach and, after further interrogation, went directly there. When my brother left University for the summer, he had the bulk of his possessions in the trunk of his car, and they tore his car apart. We were allowed in, but took almost an hour to put his stuff back in. And in those days, Canadian border agents were completely unarmed. This was a pleasure.

I used to take my grandfather home to PEI every summer and have continued to go there many times since he passed 50 years ago. Have a lot of family there still. I have always found the Canadian border guards are usually very friendly and yes, they have a job to do, but they don't act like the US border guards who seem to like to use their authority. In all the crossings I have made in the last 50+ years, I have never been searched crossing into Canada. However, I have been searched a few times crossing back into the US. I have crossed through Calais, Vanceboro and Houlton, and honestly, I dread coming back to the states because you just never know how the guards are going to be.

You CANNOT bring your guns into Canada. If you want to go to some wildest gun-toting country, try Florida. Here's a funny story from a few years ago. Calgary in Alberta has the Calgary Stampede each year. I read about this complaint in the newspaper. A police officer from the US midwest traveled to Calgary to take in the Stampede. At the border he was told that he could not bring his gun into Canada. He was incensed because he was a policeman and expected special treatment. His gun did not travel into Canada with him. And don't you know it, he needed his gun while he was here!! He and his wife had gone for a walk in a suburban park called Nose Hill Park in NW Calgary. It was actually a landfill place for garbage. No big trees, he'll, no trees. Think a scrub desert. They were one path when two nicely dressed teenage boys stopped them in broad daylight in that desert, and offered them free tickets to the Stampede they were volunteering as welcome to Calgary hosts. The cop claimed that at that point he needed his gun to take care of the matter. So he was writing in support of changing the Canadian law to allow guns to be brought into our country. Imagine being that scared of two boys in an open treeless park that you needed a gun. This is exactly why guns stay at home. I felt sorry for him for living such a dangerous life. But I had a good laugh as well. The letter he wrote was sent to his local newspaper and the journalist had a whooping great laugh . Perhaps you're too close to see that your country is going down for the count. If your dictator gets elected, your country will be the laughing stock of the world. Even more so than it currently is.

As someone who travels across the border very frequently the questions he asked are quite normal for people that don't frequently travel across the border. The food, tobacco, alcohol, firearms, knives, money and length of stay are normal questions. Especially for those traveling a longer time in the country and or are in a RV. Once you cross a lot and if you have a Nexxus pass it's even better and the questions are very few. In fact, because of a Nexxus pass which looks like a drivers license card that you scan before you get to the guard (as it gives him all of your info.) the shortest interaction we had was we scanned our cards, drove up to the border guard, he looks into the car to determine if we match the Nexxus cards and goes, "ok go." We never said a word!

"Purpose of visit?" is also a common question. If you answer you are working you better have a work permit. Most visitors like these are tourists. Your Nexxus pass is like you are pre-approved, so very few questions are asked. Safe travels.

For the other way around.... my 3 young daughters were going down to the stes ( Washington) with their grandparents. I had called CBSA before hand to ask what documents were needed. As I have joint custody with my ex we both had to write letters, signed, to say grandparents had permission to take the kids across the border. We supplied photocopies of our drivers license, as well as the kids full birth certificate.. not the wallet size. We gave phone numbers etc. Did EVERYTHING we were told to do. The US agent not so nicely boarded the motor home and took all 3 kids off the border son and INTERROGATED them. They were 5, 8 and 10. The five yr old was so traumatized by how it was done she never went on another trip across the border until she was an adult. I made a formal complaint. So power hungry jerks and jerketts work on both sides of the border.

If you can't find one of those a tie wrap will work but you have to replace it every time you unplug unless it's a reusable one. At least it keeps the plug from falling out.

WE WILL NOT EVER CROSS INTO CANADA AGAIN! A few months ago, we took the ferry from Port Angeles, WA to Victoria, BC. We disembarked on the last ferry coming into town. Mind you we had 2 little dogs onboard on THE HOTTEST day of the year (at that time)...and the motorhome had mechanical issues enroute. My wife completed the questionnaire. One of those questions was "were we carrying any MACE". The answer was NO. What weren't aware was that that "BEAR SPRAY" is considered verbotten upon entering Canada. The bear spray was onboard from a past trip to Yellowstone and was prominently mounted in plain sight. Short of alarm bells, and red lights, and sirens...we were commanded to park to the side. Then a "team" of border agents "stripped search" the RV and toad (Jeep). They weren't too polite about it either. I was instructed multiple times to go into the RV and open the safe and cubby holes for them to search. Then told to vacate each time. After an hour of this mess and trying to interrogate the both of us with their attempts to catch us in a lie, they finally figured out that we were innocent, senior campers, with 2 mutts, just on our way to a campsite near town. NEVER, NEVER, NEVER again! BTW: I think everyone is guilty of the shower snafu you guys experienced....including us. Safe Travels.

I used to drive across the US-Canadian border at least once, sometimes twice a month for business, to meet with our Canadian office in Toronto. What I learned… 1) Canadian “Border Patrol” (at least for Michigan-Canada) is not about customs or drugs - its primary focus seems to be job protection for the Ministry of Labor. There were times where I was pulled over for inspection - not for suspicion of contraband, but to go into see the Ministry of Labor where they grilled me line by line from my meeting agenda. They wanted to be sure I was not “stealing” work from Canadians. 2) I learned very quickly not to use the words “work” or “training”. Our meetings were always about coordination, coordinating efforts between the countries. 3) I also learned to dress like a tourist, even if I had meetings that day in Canada. The border interrogation went much smoother. 4) Furthermore, I learned to appreciate getting a male Canadian border agent. Women tended to be a lot tougher and cynical. 5) Coming back in the US direction was virtually always a breeze, in some cases they practically waved me by the booth. 6) Worst US bound experience? The random inspection. At 10 pm. The US border agent audibly groaned for me and apologized, “sorry man, you got randomly tagged for full inspection, and worse, the civilian inspection building is closed, so you’ll have to go to the commercial trucker inspection.” What a nightmare - they clearly are not set up for civilian inspections. Two hours later, I was finally on the road. If I were considering adding a business location in Canada, their border process alone might discourage that decision.

@@M22Research Actually, if an operation is necessary and can't be performed locally, provincial healthcare covers the costs and transports the patient to a hospital in the US. The odd stabbing or gunshot victim in Ontario were immediately sent to Detroit Receiving Hospital (stab wounds) or Henry Ford Hospital (gunfire). The doctors on staff were experts, but often not doctors, many had been army medics who learned both from war and the deadly streets of Detroit. Then, as now most of the emergency nurses in Detroit are Canadians, trained in Canada. At the Canadian taxpayer's expense. You do get some Canadians going to the States for MRI's and various tests but they don't have to. If deemed necessary Canadians are tested immediately. Immediately. We get busloads of American seniors seeking affordable meds in Canada and you wonder why? I guess American politicians lick the boots of Big Pharma. They love the donations/contributions (bribes)....

You are correct. The border agent is asking you questions to catch you out and to see if it triggers any red flags that require him to require you to undergo secondary search. But to be honest, he was not that bad. You answered the questions and he was happy. I crossed from Canada to US at Vancouver . US customs were not very communicative at all.

“This is a state I can only visit in the summer” …you don’t actually think that New Brunswick is a state do you? 😂 Welcome to Canada 🇨🇦 The maritimes are truly beautiful. I hope you enjoyed your visit. 🤗
