Just noticed I've made an honest mistake >:(
Did not know I-94 has to be returned to US officials while returning back to Canada by road

I am NOT a PR nor citizen of Canada. I was visiting Canada & driving across the border for sightseeings in the USA.
The I-94 issue date was March 2011 (which expired in Sep 2011)
While returning (land border) to Canada, no one asked for the I-94. That was my very first time visiting the USA too, so I completely hv no clue about that.

:)Now I am planning a trip from Toronto to NYC (Almost 3 yrs expiration of I-94). What should I do ?
I did some research about how to return it, but still a bit confused.

Should I follow the instructions on US CBP website: :) Mail the I-94 with supporting docs ? e.g. Pay slips in Canada
Or should I take it to the Pearson Airport CBSA office (Regardless of the long expiration)?
Or should I still go to USA & tell my honest mistake to US officials?

** My confusion is >> many people said they had such mistake but the US officials just say "your I-94 is expired, I'm going to issue you a new one" << without any hassle **
 
Yes, tell your honest mistake to US officials and see what happens.
 
No biggie, travelled to US over 50+ times betwen me dad and mom over 30 years..never dropped i 94
