We have been using an exchange 5.5 server in our North American head office for both the US and our canadian office,

I am now deploying exchange 5.5 in the canadian office and I have set it up to connect with the US site,

We are planning on dropping our leased line to the US office and I would like to migrate the canadian Exchange 5.5 server to a stand alone site at that time,

Will this be a problem

Are you bringing up the Exchange server in Canada in the same site as your US one? If so, once you have successfully joined the US site, use the move mailbox feature to move your US mailboxes to the Canadian server.
Also, how many users are in your US office?
If it is a realitivley small amount, you may want to export their mail to pst's and then import on the new server. Don't forget to update your MX record for mail delivery.

Yes it is in the same site,

I will use the pst files as then I can do a nice "clean" installation of the server,

Thanks
