Running produce to Alaska

Last time MB checked mine, last year. I told every arrest and outcome. They came back and said it shows nothing, as they were both dismissed misdemeanors. So, I guess your ok unless you have a conviction. In that case, for misdemeanors, it has to be 5 years counting from the date you were released from probation or parole with all court demands fulfilled. Then you can apply with the Canadian Ministry of "?" to gain entry. I hear this is costly and you may need a Canadian attorney. There are no promises you get permission even after the expense.

 

vikingswen-Brings back memories-running Fort Nelson to Ak. in the 70's, spit out a thrust washer-limped into Beaver Creek-hitched to Whitehorse for parts-borrowed a torque wrench and back in business(needed an oil change anyway)! Great folks at Beaver Creek. My experiences at Watson Lake were about like yours. Safe travels.

 

Stop it! You'll give me nightmares.

And if that nucklehead mechanic told me to go sit in my truck; I wouldn't be able to go to Canada anymore after I drug him up in the bushes.

 

If you travel overseas alone (they'll ask) and it wasn't a business trip ( they ask), this apparently raises a red flag to pull you in for more questions, and to scan your laptop and/or other electronic devices you carry. I was told by the officer they are trained to find people involved with drugs, organized crime, hate crimes, gangs, and child porn.

So, tell them you were on business or a family vacation, I guess.

Other countries are the same. A Thai tour guide was convinced I was CIA or plain clothes military when I was on a tour of the Golden Triangle area(Laos, Myanmar, Thailand). I asked why. He says the way you carry yourself and don't seem surprised by anything. Maybe I missed my true calling as a mercenery! LOL

Just know the government and their informants are watching you.

 

very good read, I have run up there a few times to Anchorage, It is not for the faint of heart, and if you watch Ice Road truckers and they make it look easy then you have another think coming,its not like the TV Show

 

We just did a quick visit into Canada... On the Ontario side... It is beautiful up there!! Of course we were seeing in from a car, and during late spring when there was no snow and flowers all over Reason why we got to do that is we met Bambi up close and personal! I think we leave the wild animal sightings to you... You have the bumper for it LOL!! The ironic thing is, so do we... We just haven't taken the time to put it on... We will now though!
