Coming Back via Private Vehicle without PR card

I'm currently in Buffalo, New York and just lost my PR card.

I need to come back to Ontario urgently this weekend.

I only have the Ontario health card, the original landing paper, and the original single entry immigration visa.

Will the officers at Canada customs allow me to enter if I come from Buffalo using private vehicle?

If that's not possible, is there a number I can call to seek assistance?

Thank you very much.

There are other documents you can use to enter the country.

Hi Anna,

Thank you for your response. I see that the "Other acceptable documents to support identity" section includes the "Provincial health insurance card", which I have. But will that be enough? I'm a bit concerned because they didn't include it in the "Acceptable documents to denote identity" instead.

I'm concerned that if the Canada border turns me away, when I come back to the US side, they may find me suspicious and deport me (with a bad record with it).

I'm trying to reach an agent via both domestic (1-888-242-2100) and oversea (1 613 944 4000) numbers, but both lines are engaged. If anyone knows of other numbers that I can try, please let me know!

Thanks again Anna.
