Quite a good facility for Campfire Chats (and associated activities) at the Campgrounds .... slight misnomer as most, if not all, will be in cabins, not tents ....

Mark King seemed to suggest that you need a passport to enter Canada. Is there a special reason that you would need a passport?

that all changed after 9/11. Used to be a US citizen could enter Canada and Mexico. But now you have to have a passport. Also, do not take any guns across the border.

Some states issue an enhanced drivers license that will get you In, (and out) , of Canada. I think the states that share a border. But I feel a passport is the best way.

IIRC you don't need a passport or enhanced license to enter Canada but you do to reenter the US.

I've always ( only 2 times into Canada ;) ) had to utilize my NYS Enhanced Drivers License to cross the NY Border into Canada, and then return back to the United States.

The Canadian side has begun swiping passports or enhanced ID's for a couple years now at the Manitoba border. The two sides are sharing crossing times now too.
Whatever I suggest here should be given ample time for a moderator to delicately correct. I apologize in advance.
