This is kind of an older up date so there might be some kind of newer information that is available by now.

From the Source,
The answer to the question, "Do I Need a Passport to Visit Canada?" depends on how you are planning to cross the Canadian border and when.
US Citizens Visiting Canada by Air
Until September 30, 2007, American citizens flying to Canada do not need a passport if they can show the following:
1. Department of State official proof of passport application
2. Government-issued photo identification.
The US government announced June 8, 2007, that it had relaxed earlier stricter requirements due to a backlog of passport applications. Thus, until September 30, 2007, visitors to Canada arriving by air need only present proof of passport application rather than a passport itself. These requirements are less strict than those originally mandated in January 2007 by the Western Hemisphere Travel Initiative (WHTI).
(In February 2007, the new passport requirements were relaxed for children. Read Crossing the Canada / US Border with Children.)
US Citizens Visiting Canada by Land or Water
The other date, which is when the WHTI will require citizens to present a passport when crossing the Canadian border by land or water, is yet to be determined. The deadline for the changes to take place, however, is June 1st, 2009. The deadline was previously January 1, 2008.

Necessary ID to Enter Canada by Land or Water before the WHTI Dates:
Until the WHTI land and water dates go into effect, American citizens crossing the border into Canada by land or water need ID that proves two things: 1) Citizenship, and 2) Identity by way of a photo.
A driver's license on its own or a Social Security Card on its own are not valid ID to cross the Canadian border.
I hope that answers your question. it is from this web site.

flow to Walgreens and get a passport photograph for like $15. Then flow to the positioned up place of work. they have the place of work work and could help you fill it out. in case you're leaving from a U.S. city and traveling to the carribean through deliver, you will get a passcard. they are low-value. (verify different techniques for with the ability to get the "card" rather) the only downfall is that in case you intend on flying distant places later in say a 365 days, or 2, or 5, then you would desire to have the completed passport. desire this helps

You do NOT need a passport to travel to Canada by LAND. See webpage below for confirmation of this.
