hey guys, my buddy is taking to montreal this wknd for his friend's bachelor party (i went to toronto for one about a month ago and i'm still recuperrating). anyway, he's asking me if there are any laws/policies about carrying alcohol from the US in canada.. unopened of course.
anyone know if it would be confiscated or if they just won't care.?
the times i've gone to CN I've never had someone check my car going into the country... but I've seen checks happen when you try to get back into the US.
any help? thanks in advance

Not 100% sure. I do know someone who had tried to go into the states about 5 or 6 years ago with unopened alcohol in the trunk and the car was dismantled during a search. I don't know if the alcohol had anything to do with it or if there were other circumstances involved.

I believe only if it is purchased at the Border Duty Free shop.
Then, that is a different story.

Wait a minute. You want to bring alcohol from the US into Canada? Ridiculous. If you still need to know. Alcohol: For every person over the age of 19, you are permitted to bring into Canada 8.52 Litres (288 oz) of beer (24 X 355ml or 12 oz cans or bottles) OR1.14Litres (40 oz) of liquor, OR 1.5L (52 oz) of Wine or Wine Coolers gocanada.about.com/cs/bordercrossing/a/our_border.htm
