Ontario through a tunnel under the river.

The Upper Peninsula connects to Canada in the east. The western part is near Minnesota, but would require driving through Wisconsin.

Red states on the border would likely patrol it to prevent people from crossing over. If there was a federal law against abortion, there are still ways to cross the border.

But for many women, being away so long and then returning might be difficult, if not impossible.
