I considered posting this just in Oh Canada!, but realized that it probably has implications for all of North America, so figured I'd post it here instead.
Today, we received a flyer through our door from Passport Canada reminding everyone that starting June 9, 2009 a passport will be needed for travel to the US. This is a regulation that was supposed to take effect last year, but was pushed back due to the amount of people that were not able to get one in time for the original deadline.
I would imagine that if Canadians need passports to travel to the US, Americans are going to need them to travel to Canada, and back again. If anyone has the definitive answer on that, post it here. Even not knowing for sure if the inverse is true, I figured it'd be good for everyone to get thinking now about applications since the paperwork can take some time.
