do you pass any US state if you're driving from Ontario to Calgary?

Answer 1

it all depends on what route you take. you don't need to enter the united states at all, as highway 17 will take you from sudbury westward into manitoba. if you choose to enter the US, however, you could reasonably pass through any of michigan, indiana, illinois, wisconsin, minnesota, north dakota or montana

heck, you could drive through 49 different states with enough time and gas, /without/ retracing even one mile of your route. we might even have our construction projects all finished by the time you'd get here ;)

Answer 2

The question was "Do you PASS any US State if you are driving from Ontario to Calgary (Alberta)...". Technically, you do pass a few of them.

If driving from the western edge of Ontario (Thunder Bay), you will pass through Manitoba and Saskatchewan to get to Alberta (and eventually the city of Calgary). To the south, you will be "passing" Minnesota, North Dakota, and Montana.

However, what others said is true...you will not necessarily be passing through these States unless you decide to cross the border and drive to the south.

For a driving trip, if the gas prices are cheaper down south, it may save you some money to cross into the US in Minnesota, and then start north toward Calgary when you reach Great Falls, Montana. Keep in mind possible delays at the border crossings.

Answer 3

As you head east out of Vancouver you're taking the Cocqahalla to Kamloops, in Kamloops take the go out for Prince George, highway 5North, this might take you to the Yellowhead highway close to Tete Jaune Junction the place you head east with the aid of Jasper to Edmonton, Saskatoon, assembly the Trans canada an hour west of Winnipeg, you could take the Regina, Calgary , Banff course on the in the past.merely east of Thunder Bay in Ontario the Trans canada divides into the southern course alongside the super lakes with the aid of Sault Ste.marie, or you could take the northern course with the aid of Hearst, Kapuskasing, back the two routes meet in North Bay and that is in the present day south from there to Toronto.

Answer 4

You don't have to, but if you're driving from Southern Ontario, it's probably faster through the US.

Answer 5

THE ANSWER IS ABSOLUTELY NOOOOOOOOOOOOOO

YOU TAKE THE TRANSCANADIAN HIGHWAY AND JUST FALLOW THE THREAD ..THIS IS AS SIMPLE AS THAT..AND STRAIGHT
