Travel Tips
You do not NEED a passport but it does make it easier.

You will, however, need:

1.
Proof of your U.S. citizenship such as your U.S. passport (For information on obtaining a U.S. passport, check with one of the regional passport agencies located throughout the U.S.) or certified copy of your birth certificate issued by the city, county or state in the U.S. where you were born. If you are a naturalized U.S. citizen and do not have a passport, you should travel with your naturalization certificate. A driver鈥檚 license, voter鈥檚 registration card or Social Security card is NOT valid proof of citizenship.
2.
Photo identification, such as a current, valid driver鈥檚 license. Source(s): http://travel.state.gov/travel/tips/regi...

Currently no, but that might change shortly due to security concerns with terrorists.
No you don't need a passport, just state ID worked for me. They will search you and your car.
i used a birthcirtificate and my ID last time i went...but that was then i was 10...im now 21 =)
Right now you can bring your driver's license and a birth certificate but soon the law is going to change where you will need a passport so order yours today!
You need it to return. Getting into canada couldn't be easier. The booths are manned by high school kids. On the way back into the US the booths are manned by armed guards. In Soviet Russia, Border crosses you.
