Hi Everyone,

It has been almost 20 years since I have crossed into Ontario via International Falls. Is there much of a delay entering Canada as there is leaving? I am headed through tomorrow, roughly around 2:30 in the afteroon...

Any heads up as to what the delay might be like? My alternate route is Baudette, which I know does not have much of a delay, but wanted to get some insight for I-falls since I have to go to Duluth to begin with... bout the same either way, but thinking I falls might be a little faster with more 4 lane road.

I will NOT be coming back through I-falls...that I am sure of...

Thanks in advance..

Steve

Haven't been through much, but even when being checked at I. Falls, i've never had any problems. They were good at doing it in a timely manner. The vehicle pulling the boat with our group has never been stopped. Its always been the car.
.... Now leaving canada, goodness thats another story. sit around and watch a bunch of lazy morons do nothing while you sit there waiting to be checked so you can drive the rest of the day. After about 30 mins to 1 hr they may start paying attention to you.
