I took my canoe to Canada several years ago and don't even remember any
comments.  I didn't get out of my car and think I only showed my driver's
license.  I don't remember any difference coming back in 9 days later.

I remember about 3 years ago getting off the ferry from Bar Harbor, ME at
Yarmouth, NS, and being asked by a Canadian customs agent if I had the
sales receipt for my kayak. I said "yes", and then asked if it was a
problem. The response I got was that he noticed the maple leaf on the
Current Designs logo, and deduced that it was a Canadian built boat. He
said that he didn't care so much, but that the US Customs might accuse me
of buying it in Canada upon my return (Which didn't happen -- they were
more interested in the beer we had).
