6 month holiday visa is up. Can I go to USA and back in again??

[Gem13]

Hi
I am an English tourist on a holiday visa here in Canada. It runs out next week. Can I cross the border into Bellingham USA, stay for the night and come back in again? How likely is it that they will extend my stay for 3 months? Will I get an exit stamp in passport to prove that I left just before 6 months is up for future trips to Canada? My boyfriend is Canadian so I have a good reason for being here.
Any help or advice would be greatly appreciated!! Thank you!

flag poling for a reason to extend your stay or get additional legal time to spend in canada is usually discouraged by immigration (CBSA) and it all depends on the officer you meet at the boarder and you again have to demonstrate that you are a genuine visitor. so the CBSA may or may not let you enter into canada.
The proper way to extend your stay is to apply for an "extension to stay in canada", it is an easy process, you can submit your application online/paper (online is fast and easy) and it is rarely denied in case you have family, friends, bf etc and YOU or your BF can provide proof of sufficient fund/support you need during your stay.
- the application must be submitted before your current allowed time expires. so you have few days to do it.
- if your current visa expires during the process you will be still allowed to stay in canada (implied status).

hope it helps
