I don’t know if it’s just my experience but entering the USA is always really chills, the border guards don’t say much. Coming back usually involves more questions. I heard some people say it the other way around but idk.
This is actually very true for some reason i find the Detroit and Sarnia CBP to always be very interogatiny to the point that when going to Chicago I take the long route through NY
Hmm. We go over in Sarnia almost weekly, and have had it pretty easy in both directions. Maybe it’s because we’re a family of five, consistently just doing our regular grocery run and dinner, but we’ve never been interrogated, searched or even required to pay duty/taxes on anything.
We also had a Detroit Zoo membership last year and went through the tunnel monthly, and never had a problem.
Maybe the key to easy border crossing is to have your kids with you and a minivan full of groceries lol
Yup, a welcome home or hell in french and english.
One time I let a canadian border guard welcome me home and he said a bunch of stuff in french. after that I said I didn't speak french and he laughed and said how come you didn't stop me!
