Canada route is intriguing...however, I think it might be quite the PITA to drive a moving truck across two borders...

So book an extra room halfway between your two planned stops, just in case, and cancel it if you dont need it. Of course, this is from a man who just drove 1386 miles in 22 hours up from Florida, so what do I know? If you plan to go straight across Canada to Mich (which is a great route), dont forget you need a passport at both borders, now. And London, Ont, CA has some very nice, very cheap motels.
