This really does kinda suck. Normally if you just bring your birth certificate and drivers licence your good to go...Damn terrorists eh?

Well here is another thing you can blame on the U.*. government. THEY are the ones that started this passport thing and Canada it "thinking" or implementing the same kind of thing, mostly as a tit-for-tat thing.
But it isn't coming into effect till 2007 or 2008.

I wouldnt say dam terrorists, Just needs to be done. I worked on the border for a year, and passports make it easier on us since birth certificates dont always have the stamp that makes them legal[raised seal stamp], so you have to check someones background on NCIC and Interpol to see if it checks out. Canada is okay and all, but I dont like the evryday border crossers in detroit...so rude and impatient.

The Canada-US border is the largest unprotected border in the world, which is definatly something to be proud of and I don't think passports are too much to ask, even if they aren't always neccessary.
