Crossing into BC, By Glacier on rt93- House plants OK?

Ok Tomorrow were going to Canada and without thinking we brought our 3 house plants with us as we do when we camp. Except were crossing this time, will they be taken away or permitted? Thanks
  • No problem entering Canada for us. On our return to the US they asked us about any plants and when we mentioned our chocolate mint it triggered the "Please pull into the right lane" response and we got the 90 minute RV and towed search!
  • I would declare. If you follow the rules it makes the crossing easy.
  • you'll be allowed to bring them in to canada. You just have to declare them, it's actually an annoying process for just crossing the border. you might be able to not even mention it, though, not sure if i'd personally take that chance.

    they will not ask about them, simply answer their questions and don't babble. If you get inspected. they will probably not confiscate.
