I would also strongly advise to refrain from the words "moving to Canada" since you are not legally allowed to do that yet, and it will be to the discretion of the border guard you get whether to allow you in the country or not. Some are nice, others are not so much. I would also make sure I am able to show proof of ties to the US (rental agreements, bank statements, employment contracts, etc). Having said that, my husband has had a much easier time entering Canada since submitting the application, but he always just comes to visit and has a return ticket.
We have driven from Toronto to Vancouver once, and Toronto to Montana twice, always going through the US. It is much faster and much cheaper than going through Canada. We have always crossed the border at Detroit/Windsor. At least back then (4-5 years ago), it was very fast and hassle free.
