    Cannot haul between two points within the United Sates, unless the shipper and consignee are the same company. Otherwise he can only haul loads that go back to Canada

    Doesn't matter if shipper and consignee are the same company. A Canadian picking up and delivering within the USA is cabotage. Period.

    Same as mentioned above. He would need a US work visa to perform deliveries within the US, other than the initial cross-border load. He would essentially be illegally working, not paying US taxes, and considered to be "stealing" US jobs. He'd be looking at his truck being impounded, huge fines, and possible jail-time.

    I've heard 1st offence = 5 years barred from country + large fine.
    2nd offence barred for life and a much bigger fine.

    Heard it a long time ago. I don't have any links. I am sure it is along those lines, much more than a slap on the wrist.
