Hi all,

We tentatively planned to do a land border crossing from Seattle via Peace Arch in the first week of December. We have our flight and accommodation booked, but with the recent unfortunate events in British Columbia, we are wondering if it would still be possible to go ahead with our plan.

Specifically, we have the following questions:
1) Firstly, can border crossing still be done through Peace Arch?
2) We planned to stay in Mission and Surrey (for two different nights), but not entirely sure about the situation in the two areas. Is it still possible to move around the Greater Vancouver region?
3)Are house tours (renting/buying) still going on in the Greater Vancouver Area (Abbotsford, Surrey, Langley, etc.)?

I'd be thankful if anyone in the area or someone who's got any knowledge of the recent events could provide some insight as it would tremendously help our landing plan. Thank you.

Google is your friend for details about the flooding. Vancouver and Surrey are not impacted. You should be okay to go as long as you meet other entry requirements. check travel.gc.ca for entry requirements. Surrey Langley are open, Abbotsford is flooded essential travel only.
