I have a question about "Red" States and crossing the Canadian border with a hand gun.  My daughter and I are driving to BC Canada mid-March from Iowa. She’s attending Equine Chiropractic School.   It's about a 3-4 day drive and I'm a little concerned about not being able to take my gun.  I can look up on Legal Heat website to see the red states, I'm not sure about crossing the border, or if I can take my gun at all. 

  I plan to fly back home so there is the airport ordeal as well.  Has anyone experience this sort of scenario?  We both have a concealed carry permit but the gun(s) are registered to me.  I don't like the idea of being on the road that many days without any protection.  Any help is most appreciated!
