In ONTARIO, the legal limit is 1350 kgs, about 3000 pounds. After that,
brakes are manditory. What type/make of trailer are you after? www.popupexplorer.com is a great place to check out..

I am looking at a small 8' Fleetwood camping trailer. This particular model
has the electric brakes. It weighs roughly 1500 LBS. Steve "PT_Sean" > wrote in message . .. > In ONTARIO, the legal limit is 1350 kgs, about 3000 pounds.
