I imported last year. I went over the border wondering where the US stop was? Canadian border folks kindly informed me the motorhome could be confiscated and directed me quietly back over the border with instructions of where to stop and who to see. Then, it was 3 business days in advance of bringing the coach to the border with all the required paper work. Gst is paid at the border including any work that might have been done as part of the purchase price. Don't think for one second that one may pull the wool over the sheep. The border personnel seem to be very astute with these transactions.
Just to be clear; by driving over the border into Canada without the US export clearance required from US customs before going over, the Canadian border people may and or could seize the motorhome. They made a few calls and slipped me back over the border (to the US) like it never happened, and I got the paper work processed at the US side before going into Canada the next day.
