Curious question: "What happens if a Canadian reident stays in the US for more than 182 days?". What are the penalties?
Canadians could potentially be denied entry the next time the try to enter the US. At the border, they keep track of your passport. The border guards have a lot of power. I know people that have been turned back.

If you are in the US illegally, there are both income tax and immigration implications. We would also need to buy extended Travel Medical Insurance, but that would be no problem. Believe me, we'd stay longer in the US if the US government would let us!
