Crossing into Canada

[elperegringo]

Has anyone out there RECENTLY crossed the border between Blaine, WA and Douglas, BC? I've got some past charges that lead me to believe that I may be denied entry to Canada. Do they actually run a background check on you? Is it the kind of border that you could stoll through without stopping at immigration? Should I try to cross in the woods somewhere? Wait till the Canadian migration office closes at 7pm? Or should I just forget about checking out Vancouver? Any advice, hearsay, dirty jokkes, whatever would be much appreciated.

Did you ever hear the one about the American? Ya he didn't know what the hell he was doing

migration office doesnt close at 7pm. if you look like a crust lord or a hippie they probably arent going to let you in. they dont need a reason to not. carry a lot of cash with you and put on a turtleneck and slacks.

id say go through the woods, then again when I cross borders there are no checkpoints or permits.
But if you sure the police wont even look at you while your in canada, you can try

do they check for bank account statements? or how much cash you have with you?
