Canada Mexico Travel

As you begin planning your road trip to Mexico, every Canadian is encouraged to visit the www.voyage.gc.ca, an important step before traveling to other countries. One of the services provided by the Foreign Affairs and International Trade of Canada is the option to register your international trip. In the unlikely event that something should happen, the Canadian embassy has your information and they may assist you in an emergency.
