Default Getting into Canada....

I was thinking about seeing a concert in Canada in a few weeks, but I wasn't sure what I needed to get into Canada. I've never been out of the US and don't have a passport, and I know there were talks about requiring passports for land crossings a few times in the recent past.

Does anyone know if I need a passport to land cross into Canada?

You need your passport now if you want to cross the border. Didn't used to be like this.

I would be more worried about what you need to get back here. I seem to remember my dad was stuck up there, and we had to send him paperwork to get back to the US.

I think he just used a his army ID, but they wouldn't take just that to come back.. odd

No? :thinking:

There's a lot of talk about this lately and everybody seems to say something different.

I guess they will accept your birth certificate...
