Hi. They can take your vehicle if found with weapons or drugs. Sometimes we see them in Calgary at the vehicle auctions. Please reconsider and have a great time when you are here!

I guess arrogant was a bad choice of words-sorry. I just didn't think all the lectures were needed for the simple question asked. But again thanks to ALL.

Arrogant? nope, Lectures? nope, I think everyone was alarmed that you would even think about smuggling a gun into Canada. Especially a handgun, those are reserved especially for criminals no one else has them. Not declaring it would be smuggling by definition.

Should this be case of don't ask don't tell when crossing the border or do they make any exceptions for a retired law officer from the states? Please don't turn this into a anti-gun discussion.

When to Alaska last year. Took a 30.06 and forty rounds. Cost me $25.00 Canadian,NO Dollars. You have to get paper work from the Canadian web site. No shotguns with a hand gripe. I took bear spray, Make sure it says BEAR SPRAY. Call and talk to the people in Canada they are very helpful.
