By the way, Douglas is the official name for this border as people refer to it as Peace Arch and we couldn't find that name when filling the canarrive app.

I hope this helps. Cheers
What happened to the Uber driver, how close can he get you to the border, is he able to circle back, the Peace arch is a very long road to walk. Was the Uber driver ok with doing this?
I looked at the Pacific crossing and not many drop offs close, I know the Uber drivers can come in to Canada as commercial drivers and go back through US but not sure they would want the hassle.
I saw the Lynden crossing is very easy but it closes at 12am, our flights might be late.
