Answer by Leafer
Most rental companies won’t let you pick up a car in Canada and drop it off in the US anymore,however one company,Alamo,still will(although rather “pricey”)-I tried putting in your info on their website (Edmonton-Minneapolis) and it said “no cars available”(I picked a couple dates out of thin air).When I tried Winnipeg to Minneapolis it worked and gave me several cars to pick from.I suggest you try their website with your exact info-or perhaps try calling their 1-877 number for more info.
