you only need a passport if you're flying into canada, i think. if you're driving or taking a bus, a birth certificate/driver's license should suffice.
from what i recall that is how it works for canadians coming into the states, but it might be a bit different vice versa.

From the US State Dept. website:
--- Quote ---ENTRY/EXIT REQUIREMENTS: U.S. citizens traveling to Canada are required to show U.S. Government-issued photo ID and proof of U.S. citizenship, such as a birth certificate.
In addition, U.S. law requires that Americans entering the U.S. from Canada by air (including those returning by air from short trips to Canada ) must have a valid passport. This requirement will be extended to sea travel (except closed loop cruises), including ferry service, and land travel by the Summer of 2008. Until then, travelers entering the U.S. from Canada by sea and land must have government-issued photo identification and a document showing their U.S. citizenship (for example, a birth certificate or certificate of nationalization).

I think however that Canada now requires US citizens to have a passport upon entering their country now though from anywhere. At least, that's the way it was at the end of last summer when I went. I'd get the damn passport if I were you guys
pen:
What could it hurt to have it just in case?

I hate the fact that I had to be fingerprinted upon entry to the US.
