Funny you should mention that. Detectors have always been legal in Alberta and I've used one for years. I took it with me for the US leg of the trip back but in my excitement I mounted it up the morning of day 2 just as we were about to leave Ontario.
I'm not speeding but get pulled over. OPP says detectors are illegal in Ontario. I say "I'm not speeding and am from Alberta. I'll be across the border in a few minutes". He says "I seize all detectors" and also gives me a $170 fine. Ontario tourism board lifetime member...
I drive from there all the way back 3000 odd miles w/o a detector and no tickets.
