    There is no pond between us and them.
    But then again I might be mistaken , was Canada recently moved to Europe?

    I agree but he said his company crosses there regularly so he won’t get stuck he’ll just swap his trailer for one that’s already back on the US side. Or at worst, have to wait at the Champlain “truck stop” until his trailer gets returned to him by the driver that takes it into Canada. That’s the thought process behind my answer

    I bet you spend more time getting back into the States than you do going north. Unless you're very unlucky with your border guy you'll have no probs at all.

    Pond is a word used for Lake Ontario. If you lived in NY or Ontario you would understand.

    No meat, fruit or vegetable in cab of truck going into Canada or USA. Both sides are very strict on that. Check your cooler.

    Even if it's in sealed containers and being used for personal consumption?
