The passport requirement is new for people crossing by land, but the border officials say they won't enforce it for at least another 18 months (CBC).

A passport has been mandatory since last year if your were flying into the US. The requirement for drivers was announced months ago that it would come into effect in Jan/08.

It’s funny that it was a “given” that I’d be SLEEPING with a Courtney girl.

All you needed to say is you were a Canadian or American citizen. No ID is needed, although ID and passport do make it easier it wasn’t required. Soon they will make it so only a passport is allowed; but, some people are working on making BC and other provinces’ drivers licenses work for the U.S.

Maybe the passport requirement will make the border lineups shorter now.

My wife and I have used our passports for years to make it faster to get through the border when driving across and it’s always been very fast.

If all drivers know to use something like that instead of fumbling for other ID, it *should* make for a quicker crossing for everyone in line.

Now it’s mandatory to have your passport or something.. I don’t know, I haven’t driven into the US in years. I’ve been flying in where you do need your passport.
