I'm a proud Canadian living in Ottawa! The business I'm involved requires a lot traveling to US, Europe and Asia. I'm pretty knowledgeable on cross border shopping issues. Since the rules are tedious and complex, I'd write those notes to help myself remember. Hopefully, this notes are useful to others.
