A little help. I am planning on traveling from lower US to Alaska and driving thru Canada. I will be traveling with my 7 year old Grandson. What "paper work" will I need for him to cross borders?
Instead of a signed/notarized letter from the parents, I would suggest a limited power of attorney from them concerning medical decisions for the child. In an emergency, the child will be treated regardless. For routine or urgent care, you could have problems in the US or Canada.
