how to find record?

Before computers, my grandmother discovered that my great grandfather had crossed into Canada at the Coutts Port of Entry in January 1915. Now with computers I don't know where to look. Apparently the record showed Anthony Patrick O'Dwyer, age 26, farmer, citizen from Denver, Colorado who came to Coutts by rail, was heading to Calgary with $200. I'd like to find the actual record online so I can link it as a source and continue investigating why he was going into Calgary. I believe maybe one of his brothers or sisters was living up there. Any clues to find the Coutts record or how to search Calgary for his family will be appreciated.

    I think this is a link to the record you are looking for, from ancestry.com: Canada, Border Crossings from U.S. to Canada, 1908-1935 - Ancestry.com


    Here is the indexed information: Canada, Border Crossings from U.S. to Canada, 1908-1935 - Ancestry.com


    And here it is from ancestry.com:

    I don't know if it's anything related, but here is another O'Dwyer of similar age, crossing at Coutts, born in Ireland, coming from Colorado: Canada, Border Crossings from U.S. to Canada, 1908-1935 - Ancestry.com
