Recommendation
For efficiency and convenience, I recommend flying from Sacramento to a major Canadian hub such as Toronto and then taking a domestic flight or train to Sudbury, followed by a short bus ride to Spanish. This option optimizes time and minimizes travel fatigue. Make sure to check cross-border travel requirements and allow time for customs clearance.
