What happens when refused entry at Canadian border? [closed]

Say I take the bus to go from the US to Canada, as a US citizen. If I am refused entry into Canada at the Canadian border, what happens next ?

The bus is going to leave without me, I have no way of going back home, no one to pick me up, what does one do ?

Best Answer

The general answer to what happens to you when you are refused entry at a land border is that you are left at the border on the side you are coming from. In your case on the US side of the border. The bus will definitely leave without you (it will leave without you if you are taken off for secondary screening unless it is quite short.)

After that you are free to do what you want. You are in a normal part of the US, so you can call a taxi or an Uber to take you somewhere (such as a transport hub), or you can walk, or you can call someone to pick you up. Theoretically you might hitch a ride.
