Have they confiscated or assessed duties on stuff you've brought back?
Several times US checked the refer.
Leaving Victoria once we watched from the ferry as many agents carried armloads of liquor from a RV. I imagine that was a unhappy camper.
We still talk about one Victoria entry - I was waved through in the MH, DW in the car was questioned for 30 minutes, no destination, no reservations, no luggage over and over and over. Always the same response - I'm with that MH you just let through. We later decided he must have been a trainee...
Leaving Skagway we had a CBP stand in the door entry so that she could see both of us while asking her questions. At the same time there was a train load of cruisers from the ships. They were in Canada and not allowed off the train - they just went back to the US, likely no customs.
ie Never had any problems crossing in either direction.
