They keep postponing every year. Last I heard was that you were gonna need it by January 1, 2007. I think they may have postponed it again as I haven't heard about anyone scrambling to get one this month.
This article is current as of November 2006. It says you have until Jan 23, 2007 to get a passport if you intend on entering the US by AIR. Looks like you can still drive across the border without a problem.
From what I heard you'll need one pretty quick for crossing the border both ways
Only if your going by air. Land crossings are later. I'm just not sure when, Better to just get them. Americans will need them to get back in too. Coming to Canada all is the same.
A lot of bad info in this thread. My wife is Canadian and she just flew back to Canada for Christmas so we have done a lot of research on this one.
You will need a passport to come into the USA from ANYWHERE outsite the US-50 by air effective January 23, 2007 (Mexico and Canada included). The same holds true if you are a US citizen leaving the country then coming back in. You have until January 1, 2008 if you are driving across. Kids are not exempt either - they need one also.
Though it has been pushed back and pushed back, January 23rd is the final date for air travel - period.

I think if flying you need your passport no matter what as of next month.
Driving there was a delay, but it could be extended from what Ive heard. Since a lot of trucking company drivers have always used the license & stuff like that which was always accepted. But Im not totally sure. My ex's dad drives trucks & had been explaining (errr bitchin bout) it.
But with the way things are today.. no way can it hurt you to just have one!
Is Canada saying Americans need passports to enter? I have been to Canada like 30 times and have never needed a passport (land or air), even when I worked in Canada. I just don't see Canada making a passport law with the Vancouver and Nigra Falls ports being so large.
As for Americans entering America.. Pfft, please.. If you are American and have a valid ID, they can't deny you entry, so fuck'em.
