I heard on the radio yesterday that in the very near future passports will be required to go to Canada and return to the US and visaversa. I haven't planned any trips to Canada but would one day like to visit. I guess I'll have to get a passport eventually.

It serves as your driver'* license and birth certificate as one. Plus, I've found that you're less likely to get hassled if you have the Passport.

When will the new travel initiative requirement be implemented?
The travel initiative requirements will be rolled out in phases, providing as much advance notice as possible to the affected public to enable them to meet the terms of the new guidelines. The proposed timeline is as follows:
December 31, 2005 – Passport or other accepted document required for all travel (air/sea) to or from the Caribbean, Bermuda, Central and South America.
December 31, 2006 – Passport or other accepted document required for all air and sea travel to or from Mexico and Canada.
December 31, 2007 – Passport or other accepted document required for all air, sea and land border crossings.
