There are some questions about whether numerous days to US will lead to police certificates.
Instead of speculating, I used physical presence calculator; It does not treat day trips as absence from Canada.

183+ days trips to USA does not count as 183+ days of presence in the US or 183+ days of absence from Canada , so no PCs required on account of day trips!

Mock PPR below:
From To Destination Reason # Days
2017-10-02 2017-10-02 United States of America USA 0
2017-10-03 2017-10-03 United States of America USA 0
 
I disagree.

That is the calculator for days in CANADA. It is not the calculator for days in the USA.

e.g. Even though you went to the USA for 1 day, it considers you as having been in Canada because you spent part of the day there.

So if it was a days-calculator for the USA, the reverse would apply. It would consider you being in the USA because you spent part of the day there.
 
Others, any thoughts?
I think it's safest to just bite the bullet & apply for an FBI police certificate, which is what I've done. However, I'm still waiting to receive mine back from the FBI, & it'll be thirteen weeks tomorrow since I know for a fact that it was signed-for-on-delivery in West Virginia.

I saw the FBI form, it was very different from one I used many years ago, which required the applicant to send the fingerprints. The problem is this: the form requires SSN, many people who make day trips to USA may not have one....

Just write "Not Applicable."
