Hi John -
Usually the easiest way to move cars across the border is actually with you
driving across the border, unfortunately. For whatever reason moving cars
across the US Canada border is a right pain in the ass and involves VATs,
paperwork, costs, etc.
I don't know if that helps, but that's my opinion.
Best,
Alan
