Re: ETA for holiday - panic 😳
presumably though you could have a greyhound ticket pre-booked but the officer will then be alerted and will likely have lots of questions as to why you didn't just travel directly to Toronto.

What about a layover in Detroit for a couple of days for a visit? That may be an option with an onward ticket to Toronto (not the airport). Purchase flights Toronto-Churchill on arrival in Detroit.
