For one year starting the 23rd Jan, all airline passengers will be required to have a passport to go in and out of Canada, US and Mexico. In 2008, a passport will be required for all persons travelling between the three countries....will this help, hurt, or is it the thing to do?

IMO, it is the thing to do. Proper documentation for all

No. The borders of our country are so big they are easily penetrated by land. If someone is going to get into our country to bring harm they will enter on foot if neccessary and they won't need a passport. When I was in Italy, I had to give my passport to every hotel I where I stayed. In the US it is hard to tell who is an American because of our multi culture. You can't stop everyone and ask them for their passport. I think it is just another stupid law to make us feel safe. Much like a lot of the airport rules. Passengers go through more BS and we really aren't any safer. Things still get on to planes and un documented workers work on the flight lines. I don't feel safe.

That's lame. A lot of people from Northern US go to Canada bc it doesn't require getting a passport and paying $65.

Maybe alittle but probably not a whole lot. Even the security measures they have now a 9 year old can get thru. Check out this article below.

Yes, it will improve security, but there is no guarantee that it will prevent terrorism. That is obvious everyday in Iraq with all the security that they have.
