For Canadians operating a commercial vehicle in the United States, you must keep a log book according to United States rules. If you switch back & forth between Canadian & US rules, you will be in violation of American rules, and will most likely get a fine, and end up working the day for free. As well, Canadian drivers cannot move freight, people, or service between points in the United States. All freight, picked up in the United States must have a final destination in Canada.
