Does anyone have experience in buying a trailer in the states and bringing it up here? I'm looking to buy a trailer for my truck but don't know where to start.
I am trying to get answers myself but trying to find them on our MTOs website is frustrating to say the least.

there is the army surplus in Beloeil that may have few in stock.
there was also a depot around BFC Long Point around St-Hubert that you could get used army vehicle and accessories at auction but dont know if its still going on.

If it's like a car it has to sit at customs for 2 or 3 days to clear that it is not stolen if it is used if it is new I believe you will have to pay duty on it as for plating it not sure do you have access to a car trailer? Also not sure if you have to use a broker pretty sure you don't all government looking for is there cut tax <img src='

It definitely is not new. It's a military trailer that has been decommissioned (I can only assume).
I love our government and all their asinine rules that are not need!
That would be awesome of you to ask your buddy. Thanks John!

American military vehicles may not be allowed to leave the U.S. If it is complete. In parts no problem but in one piece good luck!
