    We do, but the laws in Canada are different. It's legal here to have the booze in the trucks.

    That's exactly what I meant, trying to correct a post that someone made before me.

    I could take it into Canadia, but it had better be gone before I try to enter the US.

    My company (US) had a couple Canuck drivers try to enter the US and declared a few cans of beer in the fridge... it turned out pretty ugly.

    I roll the dice every week on too much tobacco but never screw around with alcohol on border crossings.

    It may be legal to carry booze over the Canadian border, but when you are driving down American roads going to Canada it is illegal.

    OK, so define "kiddy", sir.... I mean, under 16, or under 10? That'll get 'em going.

    Personally, I find it much easier to just not cross the border, have no problem with canada, been there a couple of times, both in a CMV and personal vehicle, just to much of a scandle in my opinion

    Would not even consider it.

    You have to tell them what you bought up there.

    Anything else is at risk for a possible search which I have had happen a few times.

    Not worth jail.

    No need to sneak them in, I just drive to Tarpon Springs on the waterfront and have the man roll them for me.

    You will never find a real Cuban cigar in Canada no matter what they tell you.
