Sounds as if you want to know where the easist place to cross undetected is?
YES! My truck (STFU tboy!), has a hideaway trunk.... We went camping in the states earlier this year and there was a liquor store strike looming, so on our way down to the USA, I stopped at my favourite discount liquor store in Niagara Falls NY, (Corner of Military and Niagara Falls Blvd.) and stocked up on about $400-$500 worth of booze. On our way home... I simply packed all the booze in the hideway trunk, and put all sorts of camping gear in the truck bed making the trunk virtually invisible!
ive heard a few people say that the best way is driving. thanks cg.YES! My truck (STFU tboy!), has a hideaway trunk....

Yes, the best way would be to bring the booze across a an American town bordering Saskatchewan. You're usually not questioned much by border patrol.
Fast boat?it think it is illegal to import booze without paying tax on it but im not sure
no not where to cross. more like method: driving, shipping, flying ?
What you are talking about is smuggling and that is illegal.it think it is illegal to import booze without paying tax on it but im not sure

Then you have a bad day, they strip your vehicle down to the rims, find the booze and instead of thinking that it was a one-off, they check to see that you cross the border regularly then you not only get to pay the tax, but you get flagged for molestation at the border every time you cross... or something worse...
I hear you and am well aware of the risk... I normally just bring back a couple bottles, but this was a special case (Liquor store employees were threatening to go on strike!
) and I certainly don't "fit the profile" if you catch my meaning. Indeed the wisest course of action.
Better luck than me-- I haven't crossed the border in years. Both pre and post 9-11 they've always gone to town on whatever car I've been in as a passenger or driver. (Worse and more intimidating on the US side.) It's odd, the cars have always been OK if not good, the people mostly white and 'respectable' enough, nobody was dumb enough to have drugs on them or to have consumed them in any relevant time period, and nobody was importing / exporting anything.
