    getting into canada isnt the hard part--its actually pretty easy and hassle free--getting back into the us--(if you are a us citizen ) is the hard part---thats why you need the passport--not to go out--but to get back in

    Certain foods are not allowed either way. Check or your groceries will be headed to the dumpster. Don't lie about anything either way. You would be amazed at the information they have on you.

    When you want to go, log onto the Government customs site it tells you everything If you have questions, Phone the boarder and ask. They are not as bad as people seen to say, as it has been said do not lie to them, look them in the eye and listen to the questions they ask you and answer them. Have you paper work in order, your truck in good shape.
    On the American side they like to ask you if you have been arrested before.
    Like I said Phone them and ask tell them everything you have concerns about. Then welcome to Canada!

    We are not using the Fast Cards.... We got the full passport books.

    The FAST card ( nothing to do with passports ) can be the difference of sitting waiting on a load or running miles if your CARRIER is FAST APPROVED.
