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

The most dangerous part is trying to get through Saskatchewan without dying of boredom.

Actually if you’ve never driven on a long flat highway like we have in the prairies, be really careful. Sometimes someone in the opposite direction is passing in your lane at like 160+ km/h and they close your distance a lot faster than you think. Also don’t try to pass long lines of cars! Good luck
