You will not be able to return to the USA without a visa so change your
plans. Moving on the last day of validity of your visa is taking an
unnecessary risk. Any delay and your landing may become toast.

Last I looked the US hadn't required Indian PRs in Canada to need a
visa. But it could get difficult to prove that you've established
residence ... a requirement for entry into the US.
Far better to get a rental that permits a drop in Canada. Even with say
an H1B visa, if he's just moved to Canada, he'd have problems because
he's not got an H1B job any more!
