Leave those firearms stateside or at least tell the border guard you
have them. He'll advise you what to do.

Don,
I haven't been to Canada recently but when I was in the trucking
business I was in Canada on a regular basis. At that time you could
carry a rifle or shotgun with no problems. You had to declare it at the
border and fill out a form. NO HANDGUNS were allowed whatsoever at that
time with one exception: If you were a U.S. citizen heading to Alaska
you could put the handgun in a sealed bag and carry with you. If a RCMP
or other official checked and the seal was broken while in Canada you
were in deep ****. I think since then the law has been changed and you
have to arrange for the shipment of handguns from FFL dealers on the
U.S. side of the border now. With the gun control people in firm
control in Canada even the laws against rifles and shotguns are
probably much stricter.

Oh it is possible to get mugged in Canada also. I was standing in a
line at a downtown Edmonton theater in the late 1970's and some guy
attacked a lady that took a shortcut through an alley back to her car.
Several of us standing in line for the movie heard her screams but
other than a small cut on her arm from the knife he cut her purse strap
with she was OK but it could have been a lot worse.
