Also no rail connection is very disappointing.

is there any cross border bus service?

Perhaps it's a "security" issue that the bus companies don't want to deal with.

There used to be both. And not long ago either. I assume there is little to no demand for them.

Probably not as much of a need since most people going would go for shopping and you can only bring so much back. Sorry not going any time soon or I would offer a ride...um provided you cleaned out your umm. Pockets of BC stuff....

Greyhound crosses in bc and in Ontario not sure about Saskatchewan though, also thought this may be a softball for those "guberment should subsidize it so cc can cross border shop" folks

Am I hearing this correctly???



There is no public transit available for people to get to the States except for a charter bus service?



Un-fricken-believable if it's true!

Why not just take your own vehicle? Then you can be at your own beck and call. Smile

craigslist is the ultimate place to find anything, unfortunately that anything almost always turns out to be a out of shape horny old man even when all you are looking for is car parts.
