Going to BC, hopefully??

[PJ-Hunter]

I would love to go there and ride someday. The terrain and scenery looks breathtaking.

So my question is, could somebody help me with whom to call to even see if Canada would let me in.

Basically, I did some stupid crap when I was 19 and although it doesn't show in a 10 year background, I realy don't know how far back Canada goes.

It was nothing serious, IMO. No violence, drugs, alcolhol. Just messed up.

Is there a number I can call to at least get some info? I'd like to know if I'd be wasting my time.

Thanks for the help.

Canada is weird about letting people over the border. Two weeks ago we went over in two trucks (both were searched, go figure). Two buddies in the other truck had one arrest for public urination 9 years ago, and another had a dui 11 years ago. They brought it up on the computer system and ten minutes later we were on our way....into Canada for a week of riding pow! Have also heard stories of people getting turned away for dui's that happened 15+ years ago....hummm? The above link has some good info!

They won't even let people with DUI's in.

Straight from our friends up north....so who's willing to roll the dice?!!! Happy I dont have one!

Persons without waivers who have only DUI’s or other less serious criminal convictions and have no criminal convictions in the past 10 years may be considered rehabilitated when they reach the border – BUT this is at the Canada Immigration officer’s discretion.

They won't even let people with DUI's in.

The only problem I see is you may not want to go back!

I've been up to ride in bc this year and last. Both times my buddy driving was let in and he had a DUI less then ten years ago. I have a few of tickets, 20 maybe 25 in the last ten years, had been arrested before and spent a day or two in jail for a fight that happen at a house party. Let me in too. Only funny thing was that they asked if we had been finger printed, we both said no even though we both had, guess they were just fishing with that question...

Thanks Chris. I found a couple numbers that should work, from the CBSA.

If they turn you away once it goes in the computer and if you try again they usally get kinda pissed. If they say no then ask for a Queens pardon pay the fee and good to go.

I was wanting to put a BC trip together for next season.

I've got a BC connection with a guy who works at a hotel and BC is his back yard. He'd show you around PJ

I probably can't make it happen next year, buying a ring and saving for the wedding

Give me a shout if you get serious, I'll toss you his contact

Nice rig. Cash looks like something you aren't short of though.

This would be something that I'd wanna put together with a bunch of guys.

 

[Blk88GT]

Let me know when you go Ralph, I'd head out with ya!

that rig is not spiced wafers rig. It is just a rig we saw up there.
I believe the plates where from ontario.

also gas was $5.00 a gallon, your trip to bc won't be cheap, That is why bc stand for bring cash. Also get ready for brown gravy on everything. Sick riding though. Aslo BC is huge, way bigger province than most people think about. Roads do get closed alot compared to down here in states.

The pow can be deep though. the pic was taken a couple of weeks ago at eagles pass out of sicamous.
