We
include some information for car rental clients travelling in Canada: GENERAL INFORMATION ON CANADA - for guidance only!
Local Travel
You should use common sense and take basic precautions. Bear in mind the following: Do not drink and drive; If staying in a hotel, do not leave your door open at any time; Do not leave your handbag or luggage unattended in reception or dining areas as thieves often target tourist hotels; Keep passports, tickets and large sums of cash in a safety deposit box or hotel safe; Avoid leaving luggage on display in cars.
Road Safety
All forms of public travel are generally excellent. Be aware that each province and territory has the authority to establish its own traffic and safety laws.
Canadians drive on the right side of the road. Seat belts are compulsory and right turns on red lights are permitted except in some parts of Quebec.
Visitors should take out full insurance cover when renting a vehicle.
Apply for an International Driving Permit from either the AA, the RAC, RSAC or Green Flag Motoring Assistance Recovery Club. This will allow you to drive in Canada and hire a car. Distances and speed limits are posted in metric (usually 100 km/h or 60 mph on highways and 50 km/h or 30 mph in towns and cities).
Obey speed limits and take extra care when travelling on country roads and be aware of possible encounters with wild animals such as deer, elk, and moose.
Winter travel can be dangerous due to heavy snowfalls and ice that make road conditions hazardous. Check the weather forecast before travelling, and pay special attention to the wind-chill factor as this can create dangerously cold outdoor conditions.
Some roads, especially rural routes which generally remain open in winter, may be closed for short periods following extreme weather conditions, such as heavy snowfall. The use of snow chains or snow tyres may also be required. Many motorists consider snow tyres a sensible and necessary precaution at this time of year.
For detailed information on road conditions throughout Canada, please see the Transport Canada web site at http://www.tc.gc.ca or The Canadian Automobile Association site at http://www.caa.ca both of which provide tips for travelling safely on Canadian roads.
LOCAL LAWS AND CUSTOMS
Do not make off-the-cuff or flippant remarks about bombs or terrorism, especially when passing through Canadian airports. A number of increased security measures remain in place at airports. You should not carry any sharp implement etc in your hand luggage. The restrictions are much the same as in the UK.
You should not attempt to carry meat, animal or dairy products into Canada at any time without declaring these products to Canada Customs. Banned food products will be confiscated and you could be subjected to severe penalties. Further information can be obtained from the Canadian Food Inspection Agency’s website at http://www.inspection.gc.ca.
Canada Customs require you to declare whether you intend to visit a farm within 14 days.
The plant Qhat (Khat), although legal in the UK, is illegal in Canada. You should not attempt to bring this plant into Canada as this could result in imprisonment.
For more information on custom regulations in Canada check the Canadian Customs and Revenue Agency website at http://www.ccra-adrc.gc.ca.
ENTRY REQUIREMENTS
Visas are not generally required for British Citizens visiting Canada for short periods. However, other categories of British nationals should check requirements before making firm plans. If in any doubt contact the Visa Section of the Canadian High Commission: Canadian Representation in London.
If you are travelling with children, and where only one parent is present, you should bear in mind that it is advisable to carry a letter of consent from the non-travelling parent. Immigration officers have the right to question children using simple and appropriate language, to establish if there are any child abduction concerns. There is discretion, but this depends on the attitude of the accompanying parent. A letter of consent will help to dispel potential concerns, and should refer to the travel details in question and provide the necessary agreement to the visit.
Citizenship and Immigration Canada at website: http://www.cic.gc.ca also provides complete and up-to-date information on the entry requirements and status of travel in Canada.
If you intend to travel on to the United States you should check the entry requirements of the US authorities (see the US section of the FCO’s Travel Advice).
HEALTH
While Canadian hospitals and medical services are generally very good, there are no special arrangements for British visitors. We strongly recommend that you obtain comprehensive travel and medical insurance before travelling, as medical treatment can be very expensive. The British High Commission and Consulates-General cannot assist with medical expenses.
If the weather is extremely cold, avoid strenuous activity, cover your mouth to protect your lungs from the cold air and be alert for signs of frostbite. Sunglasses help cut glare from the sun, particularly where there is extensive snow cover, and reduce the effects of ultraviolet rays.
Additional advice can be found on the information for travellers' page on Health Canada's website at: http://www.hc-sc.gc.ca.
Rabies is a problem in most of Canada and can be spread by small animals such as racoons and bats. Do seek urgent medical advice if bitten by a wild animal.
Information on vaccinations and other health precautions, such as safe food and water, and insect bite protection, may be obtained from the Centre for Disease Control and Prevention at http://www.cdc.gov/travel.
For further information on health, check the Department of Health’s website at http://www.dh.gov.uk.
NATURAL DISASTERS
If you intend skiing in Alberta and British Columbia, you should be aware of the possibility of avalanches. Back-country hiking and skiing has increased in popularity in recent years and it is vital that inexperienced back-country users understand the risks involved, and monitor changes in the weather and local avalanche warnings. Information on latest avalanche conditions can be obtained from website http://www.avalanche.ca.
Winter weather conditions in Canada can become severe or dangerous very quickly, sometimes with little or no warning. Temperatures can often fall well below freezing to minus 20C for long periods. High wind chill (around minus 30C), heavy snowfall, freezing rain and blizzards all pose a hazard to those venturing outside or travelling. If you intend to travel within Canada, especially to the northern or mountainous regions, you are strongly advised to obtain local information for the area that you will be visiting in advance, and to regularly check local weather forecasts regularly while on the road.
Several times during the winter, highways are closed in British Columbia and Alberta due to avalanches. Throughout Canada, flights are often delayed as planes need to be de-iced. Power outages, due to winter storms, can cause disruption and all types of travel are subject to delay in extreme winter weather.
For more information visit Environment Canada at their web site http://www.ec.gc.ca
GENERAL
If your passport has been lost or stolen, contact the local police and the nearest British High Commission or Consulate immediately.
Canadian cities have a 911 emergency telephone service. If this does not work, simply dial 0 and ask the operator to connect you to the police or medical services. There is no charge for emergency calls placed from a public pay phone.
Ensure that for all flights (other than your UK departure flight), you call the airline locally to reconfirm your flight times at least 48 hours prior to departure. Visitors should note that the majority of airlines are continuing to recommend a 3-hour check-in for international departures due to the increased security.
Visitors on package holidays should travel without fail on the specified return date. Otherwise a return ticket may have to be purchased.
