Re: letter of authorization
It is up to Canadian Border Services and/or U.S. Department of Homeland Security when crossing by vehicle; when crossing by air the airlines also have their own policies, but generally you require a letter of authority (notarized if possible) or a Corut Order allowing you to take your child across the border without the other parent being present.
