Do you have to be 18 or accompanied by an 18 year-old to cross tha American-Canadian border?

Nope just drive down or up through some spot in vermont/quebec....I went to sutton once and it rained one day some me and my dad decided to look around and he wanted to see if you could still pass there w/out any border people....I wonder if its still like that

Just a thought

it would probably be fast to drive on the american side all the way to vancouver and then cross there, i'd take some id and a birthcertificate and a note from your parents saying you can cross just in cass, cause what if you got there and they turned you back, so take some precautions cause that's a long fucking drive

jo-skis i was just up at sutton they have border there now



Aye, fight and you may die, run and you'll live. At least a while. And dying in your beds many years from now, would you be willing to trade all the days from this day to that for one chance, just one chance to come back here and tell our enemies that they may take
our lives, but they'll never take our freedom?!

its way faster to drive on the US interstates. Drive all the way in the US and cross at Blaine, WA.

Swirly999, theres always been a border there, except in this one sketchy road, but they blocked that off long ago. trust me, i grew up near the border of the townships.

and to get into canada, and out, jsut make sure you have a passport, and some kind of alternative identification, like a health card, or drivers liscence

here's my call: i dont know about crossings in montana, but after montana there are a lot more cops on the roads. but definitely stay in the states til at least there, and probably all the way through to seattle. BUT, if you do come all the way over, do NOT take the blaine border crossing because it is ridiculously slow and busy ussually and it leads you into downtown vancouver which is alos a huge waste of time. If you turn off in bellingham there is a crossing at lynden/sumas thats a lot faster and takes you to highway one or whatever it is that goes around the city and all the way up to whistler.

You are definitely going to want to have your birth certificate and drivers license, if you have a passport bring that too. i live in michigan and cross over almost monthly, you have to have at least two forms of legitimate ID. Aparents note i dont really think they will even care about but who knows might as well bring it with you. Just dont be stupid and act mature when crossing the border and you will be fine

The best way will be for you to take I90 west until you get to seattle then take I5 north and use the truck crossing east of Blaine so you wont deal with the border backups...

seriously, getting into Canada is amazingly easy. The worst that could happen is a cavity search, and if we're honest with outselves I think we all kind of enjoy those...

Isnt it annoying when you go to canada and you get all that change and when you get back to the US and your at a pop machine thats broken and won't take your dollars and you have a bunch of canadian money that it won't take. It pisses me off.

Coming Soon...
