    Try contacting Waggoners Trucking- Google for their contact info. They run the Alberta/Texas corridors and have both Canadian and American terminals, drivers and trucks, also owner-operators. Might be a good place to start, they think outside the box..

    The Michigan DMV is wrong, of course, but you might have to have an attorney familiar with international law, native rights, treaty rules, and the Jay treaty take up your case. You will get the renewal, federal laws supercede state laws, but sometimes they like to argue anyways. Be polite, work your way up the food chain until you get to a higher -level person who can fix your problem and over rule the lower level bureaucrats at the front desks. Be polite but persistant, it will work.
     
    Lepton1 and Farmerbob1 Thank this.

    Driver's licenses are a State matter. The Feds cannot make a state issue a license to anyone, Canuk.

    First,
    I'm not a Canuk, so the insult doesn't register. Second, no state law can contravene a federal law, or it will be overturned in court, eventually.
    That's what the Civil War was about, and still holds today...

    Your ignorance is staggering. Exactly what I would expect from a Canadian concerning Constitutional law and US History in general.

    If the issue is a matter of legal residency in the US, then Federal law is absolute. The Federal government has 100% control over who can live in the US legally.

    If the licence is being withheld over legal right of residence, the Fed will win an argument. However I am not entirely certain that is the case.

    So either of you might be right. I don't think we have enough information to make a clear identification of the legal issue.
     
    3noses Thanks this.
