How are you driving back down, with friends or renting a car?
I highly doubt you will have any problems entering Canada so long as you say when you plan to leave, and if asked say you plan to leave by car. If you are renting a car then provide proof of the rental, or have a friends name handy if required. I highly doubt they will even ask but it does not hurt to have the information handy.
