Just wondering need to know because I am going there tomorrow and I need to know if I need to ask my friend to meet me on the other side or not. I have to renew my insurance and haven't had a chance since I got my car fixed yesterday. I forgot because I haven't driven the car since December.

You can be asked in any spot check. Since it is illegal to drive without insurance, your car will be impounded until you have proof of insurance. You will have to pay the fine, the tow, and the impound fees. This is nothing to do with you being a tourist, it would happen to me if I drove without insurance, too. You do not need any special insurance or rider to drive in Canada by the way. American and Canadian insurance, registrations, and driver licences are good in all states and provinces.

If you don't have insurance, don't drive. Simple as that. Every state has laws against driving without insurance. If you are stopped for any reason your vehicle may be towed. Don't take that chance.

Last time I was in Canada was before 9/11...month before, in fact. At Niagara Falls they just ask you where were you born, where are you going, how long will you be there, why are you going there.
As far as I know they don't check for insurance.

Depending on your policy, you may actually need to buy a special out of country rider for your US insurance policy.
It may pay out in a foreign country, so you may need a special international driving insurance policy.

Going over won't be a problem, getting back in the U.S. is something else, don't chance it.
