The safest thing you can do is to have a passport. But no matter how lax Canada's laws are, you WILL have a problem comimg back to America if you don't have one.

The problem is not getting into Canada, but rather coming back into the US. An italian friend got deported because the US border patrol couldn't understand the fact she had a student visa. It will be easier for you to get back home if you just get a passport.

I go to canada several times a year and, while they *say* u don't need one yet, they will put up a huge stink if u don't. Don't even bother going without one. Going to MTL is a little easier than Toronto (via niagara or b-lo....I 100% would NOT go thru that border without one in EITHER direction!! Doubtful they would even let u thru, they are much more strict at the western border....)

Just got back from Niagara Falls yesterday. Bring a passport cause without it you cant get in.
