I would think the Canadian government because you enterring their territory.
i think its so they can keep track of who is going where and what for ect
Most of us are used to having a passport to go to a foreign country. Of course you could use a cruise missile and an aircraft carrier.
as of jan 1,2008 it goes into effect
I have no idea, but we have to get a passport to cross the border, too. It isn't always about the Americans, you know. It is about keeping out unwanted terrorism.
The US government. Technically you don't need your passport to get into Canada-but then you could never get back to the US if you didn't have one.
