The agents, on both US and Canadian sides, at this border crossing are always respectful and helpful.
We drove past the US immigration around 16:00 o'clock without being stopped or checked out. Handed over our Dutch passports at a window on the Canadian side. Since we had to enter on our Working Holiday Visas, they asked us to park the vehicle and to wait in the waitingroom. Officers were stern. Our Working Holiday Visas were printed and passports stamped within 20minutes. They did however, take an hour to check our Quebec registered minivan com-plete-ly(we live in the minivan, so that is somewhat expected). What wasn't expected was that they opened every bag of clothing, every box, every tupperware, every cabinet, turned over every sock, they checked e-v-e-r-y-t-h-i-n-g as if they were searching for something(and left us the giant mess ofcourse, without respect for our valuables like expensive laptop/camera). And they found receipts; so they found money. Since we had a breakdown of our car and we had to get new parts, they checked the receipts and we had to pay 25% tax over our parts. After getting into an argument as 70% of it was on our car already, they settled for CAD51,- and told us to file in a complaint were we want to fight it. As of today we're still waiting to hear back after filing an official complaint as the percentage of tax seems to be incorrect. Throw out all your receipts guys, if crossing with a (mini)van you live in! Lesson learned here!
