Trans Canadian Highway

I've been to Canada uncountable times and never had any major problems. 3 times,twice on the American side and once the Canadian side I got shit. I've never been refused entrance and I have ton of "stuff" in my past. On the American side once was coming back from hockey camp with son and daughter and the border guards from USA pulled me in and searched the van then let us go. And they were rudevassholes. The other time coming back into bar harbor the USA border guard and who was a Mexican started giving me shit and going thru the truck even though I had veteran plates and a VA STICKER BUT DIDN't comment on the Canadian cigars on the dash. Iwas laughing out loud bevause I'm an honorably discharged vet and he's a Mexican. I deserve to be here more then him. He asked me what was so funny, I just said shook my head and said "nothing." Finally a female guard came over and told him to put the stuff back in and let me go.

On the Canadian side I was going back to Quebec to pick up my son. I foolishly wore a tie dye shirt and my hair was not neatly in a ponytail,the Canadian guards pulled me over,took everything out of the van,asked me how much money I had and to show them. They eventually let me go after trashing my car. I had to put it all back

Other then that like roadster guy said Canada's awsome especially on a motorcycle but expensive. And when it rains MF'er it rains torrentially. I've made some life long friends there. Including thhe owners of oak island,the blankenships from the oak island mystery series.been on oak island a dozen times,steeped over their house a couple time too. They've visited here a week. Going back next year. I'll post some pictures later.

First picture is me and Dan Blankenship planting fruit trees on Oak Island. The 2nd picture is me,mywife and Mr and Mrs Blankenship having us over for dinner

Going to thread hijack for a minute JB, sorry in advance.
I love traveling in the U.S. You guys have it great with your lower gas prices, beautiful scenery, and some really friendly people. Made it down a few years running into Maine/N.H around 4th July. Wow! Canada needs to learn patriotism like you guys have. It is a shame for crap like Ferguson to happen when it seems everyone is so proud of where they are. Spent some of the last few winters in Fla. for a bit. White, brown, black, everyone was a pleasure to meet and talk with. Some Aholes on the interstate don't know how to drive, but we have those here also, so no biggie. I did miss my rolling hills at home as Fla. was a bit too flat for me, but N.H. mountains make up for it. Really hoping for some Pacific coast time with the wife in the next year or two, FLHT pics make me so jealous.
JohnnyBiker, if you don't make Canada, no worries. You have it pretty good down there too.

I have been to Canada before but it was pre 9/11. I am not worried about not gaining entry really. Checking out for fuel reasons mainly. The ride from Sault Ste Marie to Thunder Bay is shorter than what it is from my house to Sturgis.

No income tax? Where do I sign?
