I'm glad you posted this information, we're headed up to Alaska via BC and the Yukon. I find the Canadian border website very difficult to navigate in trying to find such information.

When you search are you including 'domain', ie. ".ca" in your search site. Or are you going to www.google.ca or www.yahoo.ca?

:C

The CBSA website is not very intuitive, how you get there is really not relevant.

Thanks for the tip, on our way to Alaska,be crossing the border in a couple weeks

Well, I had heard about bird flu in Canada.

All of this means expect to be questioned about pet food and have it confiscated, since poultry is often the protein in pet food. Carry a brand you can replace in any small town.

Or if a prescription diet, a copy of the prescription.

You're welcome Tom. The Canadian Food Inspection Agency updates this website as additional information is available so travellers can get the latest directives.

Thanks Eric,

We're going into Alberta this summer.
