The factual answer, with a source to back it up is:
By air, you will need a passport to board an international flight from or to the U.S.
By land or sea, passports are not needed until Jan 2008 or later (date not yet set). You need a photo I.D. (Drivers License) and proof of citizenship (birth certificate) especilaly to get back into the U.S.

To enter Canada-no you do not need a passport. However, since January 23, 2007; if you are flying and need to "re-enter" the USA you will require a passport. That means when you go home. This same American law (WHTI) will take effect for travel by land and water as soon as January 2008.

Only if you want to go home.
You will need some ID. Soon (but not yet) you will need your passport to enter Canada.

Yes you do. New regulations that just went to effect requires you to have a passport to get in and out of the US from Canada or Mexico.

No, but you might need one to get back into the States. Blame it on the Terrorists, for making all our lives a bit more difficult. Maybe soon, we will have to have an eye scan, and give a sample of our sperm to move around this paranoid world of ours. Sorry Ladies, they might ask for an egg.
