We are looking for information on how to get a stall at the Point Roberts Saturday Farmers Market. We have some hand made craft items we’d like to share with the community. Can you please tell us who is the organizer and how we can reach them? Thank you.
I’m a citizen of the us and a permanent resident of Canada. I’m wondering if I live in point Roberts and work in Vancouver, will I have to pay taxes in both countries and will each day count towards my time requirement to keep my canadian PR?
You need to talk to both a Canadian immigration attorney and an accountant who can do both Canadian and U.S. taxes. My understanding is, you will have to submit a U.S. tax return but would only pay taxes on the Canadian income if the U.S. tax was higher. For example, you make $10,000 and the Canadian tax rate is 35%. If the U.S. tax rate was 40%, you would have to pay the difference. Of course, the Canadian tax rates are higher so that won’t happen. My guess is, working in B.C. but living in Point Roberts won’t count towards your Canadian time requirement. You have to have an established domicile in Canada in order to qualify. But this is too important to take anyone’s word other than an attorney and an accountant. Trust me on this – I’ve heard too many horror stories from people who got the wrong advice.
Are there any Icelandic decendents living in Pt Roberts? I am one, living in WA and know my Dad went up there in the 40’s but can’t locate where. Thank you.
Hello. We own a home in Point Roberts, WA and I’m holding a high school reunion with eight of my best friends from Toronto who are going to visit me in the Point Roberts between August 19, 2017 to August 26, 2017. I’m in need of a person who will own (a) cooking of breakfast, lunch and dinner and (b) general house keeping of our condo given all of us will be in one home. Can you point me to a local resource who offers these services? Ideally I want my friends to have a wonderful vacation and not have to worry about eating outside OR cleaning. Thanks
Does anybody know any moving company service Point Roberts? I’m thinking about moving here, but have difficulties to find moving company which service here. Also, where I can find local help in Point Roberts to help me unload furniture if I have to drive U-Haul truck in myself?
Yes, Pat told me that “LaPorte Moving” of Vancouver will move to the point.
Does anybody know any “Pod” company service the points from mainland? UHaul may do that, but they’re twice as expensive comparing with UPack.
Does the shuttle/taxi service still run from Point Roberts to Cordata Station to Bellingham, once a week? I can’t seem to find any information on this.
The information is included in the bottom of our Coming Up calendar. For your reference, it’s every Tuesday. Call 676-7433 to arrange; 945-4208 for info.

Hello! I’m new to Point Roberts (just moved from Seattle) and am about to begin my search for employment. However, I’m finding it difficult to find any sort of listings. I tried to use the Classified section on this site but there is only a error message when you click the link. I’ve also looked at Craigslist for Bellingham and Vancouver to find job listings but there aren’t many listings 🙂
Does anyone have any advice for a newcomer? I’m 30 years old and have an extensive work background in several areas (Operations Manager, Executive Assistant, Paralegal, Project Manager, etc.) If you have any words of wisdom I’d be extremely grateful! Thanks for your help and I look forward to living life on The Point!
I was trying to reach the classifieds on your site.. just shows an error page… is there a remedy for that… or just no classifieds? Thanks for any help.
We have family whose children have dual citizenship who are thinking of moving to Point Roberts. We know there is no school in Point Roberts and children are bused into Blaine. Is it possible for children with dual citizenship to go to school in Point Roberts.
Thank you!

This page on the site only shows one week of tides. I and many others used the full annual list of tide tables for vacation planning. Can you bring that back or provide a link for the full annual list of tides please?

The tide charts and weather seem to be stuck on November 7th. Is anyone else having this trouble?
We have family whose children have dual citizenship who are thinking of moving to Point Roberts. We know there is no school in Point Roberts and children are bused into Blaine. Is it possible for children with dual citizenship to go to school in Point Roberts.
Thank you!
The CLASSIFIEDS link (http://one.modaira.com/ent) under the MORE menu leads to a 404 page.

It’s terrible that you do not have the tide charts anymore on the website update. Somthing you should improve

As far as I understand it you can, but you would lose your BC medical. NEXUS line ups are usually not bad.
