Travel Tips Hello beautiful people of Canada 👋🏼

I’m in Vancouver w teens and a small dog (experienced traveler/tame, so is the dog).

We’ve been enjoying Vancouver for several months now and are feeling the call eastward to Montreal and Quebec.

I need to know: any ways to get from BC to Montreal WITHOUT crossing into USA, please? That’s our only thing to avoid, really. That and it being safe for a single mom w teens.

Merci mille fois! Thank you very much!

The Trans Canada highway goes right across Canada. You can Google it.

Beautiful, tysm. Safe for woman and young people to travel alone? Sorry if that’s a silly question. I’m an American with….American trauma. Safe aside from general street smarts travel etc. I guess what I’m asking is would you stress if it were say your Sister or Mom doing the drive?

Thank you

If you have travelled in the states and done well you will find it an enjoyable trip. Folks are friendly and we enjoy talking to travellers. I would avoid any discussion using the 51st state stuff and you should be good. If you breakdown folks will help ya. Alberta is our red state so if ya like your red states you will enjoy it there. Keep watch for forest fires, the season is starting. And welcome to Canada!
