In general, one who is released on bail is not allowed to leave the US without permission from the court (only if one lives in Detroit and works in Windsor could such a condition be modified). A US Passport is now required to fly between US and Canada and a court could require that person to surrender his passport if the court senses that the person is a flight risk. Cooperation has improved between the US and Canada; so, even if one leaves the US - the Mounties will find that person and extradite him right back to the US where he will be locked up with no bail.
Ask for permission from the court via a motion filed by the attorney and served to the prosecution.

I wouldn't recommend it. I recently bonded my gf out of jail. I believe any part of bail is that you cannot leave the county or at minimum the state. I wouldn't go to Canada if I was you. It would only get you into more trouble. Ask your lawyer or public defender.

the decision is the person who you paid to be bailed out....they will tell you where you can and cant go
