I’ve planned a trip to eastern Canada this spring. All the same features for Canada are there. No difference between U.S. features and Canada features. Check it out. I dont make trips without it.

I'm from the US, but have used TripWizard for trips to Canada. Many, if not all RV parks, Provincial Parks, poi's, everything listed in the US is listed in Canada.
Been as far north as Peace River in Alberta. It's a great tool for researching routes and camping spots. Give it a try.

Based on the mapping I've done RV Trip Wizard doesn't care what side of the border you are on. If you've got roads and campgrounds it maps just fine. You really should get out more and come visit us in the southlands. I hear Mexico is fine this time of year! Puerto Peñasco has several acceptable campgrounds.
P.S. I still don't drink the water!

Lol… I agree! I always tell the DW, “well, the people who live here drink it.”

I'm always amused at the never ending debate about this.

If you tend to make longer trips you will love it.
I even use it for trips from my home in central florida to places 500 miles away. I plan my rest stops, fuel stops and of course campgrounds.
I have a 47 night 27 stop trip planned to Canada and back. All the info for this is on RVTW. Stored away in one place. I love it for sure…
And remember RVTW is a planner and not a gps. Use The RVlife app which is included with RVTW subscription as your gps. RVlife syncs with your RVTW trips.

Larry,
Thanks as the email has a lot of useful info on the travel router. I saved it for future reference.

Appreciate the gift of the two additional years.
Have been using the trip planner and really like being able to see reviews etc when planning places to stop.
Have been a couple rest areas that didn’t actually exist during our recent 1100 mile trip but that’s minor.
Have been using the gps app on my phone and apple car play as well for local navigation without planning - works nice and better than Waze or others from what we’ve found.
Thanks again for the additional time on the membership.

One of the major benefits imo is that the Pro upgrade means no ads at Campground reviews if you login - Bonus
