    TIM HORTONS!

    I got yelled at by a friend for saying Tim Horton's is better than Dunkin' Donuts.

    If you had a dog on your truck will the border guards have a problem with that?

    Not normally, so long as they meet the import requirements, most of which centre on rabies certification.

    Depends on the breed of dog and where you are going it seems too.

    I have personally not taken jobs where willingness to do Canada crossing is a requirement to get hired. I don't feel like dealing with the hassle and I cannot stand snotty men in badges. But if you can deal with the bs, I've been told its not a big deal.
