Hey guys. I am planning to receive my passport back with COPR on Monday and would love to make a landing using a flagpole method. I heard that many people were turned away because customs reached a quota or something. I live in Toronto and can borrow a car from a friend so driving additional miles are okay for me. Do you have a particular bridge you can recommend for landing to make everything goes smoothly? Thank you.

Thank you. Do you know their opening hours? I am working, so maybe can ask for a leave around 1-2 pm. Do you think it is okay or I should go early in the morning?

Hey,

I am going to receive my COPR on Tuesday/Wednesday as well. I have heard Queenston-Lewiston bridge is the nearest and reachable by car without any time constraints unlike Rainbow Bridge. I stay near Union station in Toronto, with the only constraint of not having a car that I can borrow. Would you please consider having us accompany you? We would also prefer going sometime late afternoon due to work constraints.

Thanks in advance!
