Great information.

Going into BC this summer was great. Dealing with the US returning ... not so much. Firewood going into Canada? No problem. SAME US firewood, returning? Nope, gotta go back into Canada (again no problem) and leave it there. I guess they're used to that -- "Just leave it in the pile in the guy's yard." Then the ordeal with our ICE-holes again. Makes ya proud...

Have a great trip.

Niagara Falls is a tourist trap and really quite awful. If you have time, you may wish to visit Niagara on the Lake, about 45 minutes away. Yes, also a bit of a tourist trap, but beautiful.

Thanks for that, I live in Niagara on the Lake and work in Niagara Falls.

As B.C ers, we notice the same attitude the other way with customs. No problems going down through U.S. customs, but sometimes major attitude going home. I know I can phone the U.S Customs office before going down to find out any changes, but our good old Canadian side won't even give out their phone #.

Everyone should see Niagara Falls, The Falls are quite impressive.

Niagara on the Lake, about 20min North of Niagara Falls is one of the most beautiful towns in Canada, full of wineries and vineyards. The best wines in Canada are made in Niagara. We have amazing theatre productions at the Shaw festival and you can visit many historic sites such as Fort George where they are currently celebrating the 200 year anniversary of the war of 1812, and the Monument to General Sir Isaac Brock at Queenston Heights. Queenston Heights is the starting point of the Bruce Trail, a hiking trail which runs all the way from Niagara to Tobermorey Ontario.

If you're driving through Niagara and see a guy working on a '77 Safari, stop and say hi to me!
