I just checked into the Hilton Bonaventure with the wife and baby. Any idea what their definition of "oversized stroller" is? We've got a pretty standard collapse able unit...

Also its kosher for all three of us to be there right? Any idea about whether we can bring diapers/wipes for inevitable messes?

They probably just don't want those enormous 'tank' strollers that people seem so keen on using on public transit! :lol:

And good luck to you and wmtc. :)

Good luck! Timmies just down the road!!

Canadians Visiting the USA while undergoing the visa process, my free advice:

1) Always tell the TRUTH. never lie to the POE officer

2) Be confident in ur replies

3) keep ur response short and to the point, don't tell ur life story!!

4) look the POE officer in the eye when speaking to them. They are looking for people lieing and have been trained to find them!

5) Pack light! No job resumes with you

6) Bring ties to Canada (letter from employer when ur expected back at work, lease, etc etc)

7) Always be polite, being rude isn't going to get ya anywhere, and could make things worse!!

8) Have a plan in case u do get denied (be polite) It wont harm ur visa application if ur denied,that is if ur polite and didn't lie! Refer to #1
