We're being told passports -or some other newly created "security" document- will be required (by Canadians wanting to go to the US, and Americans who want to go anywhere and get back into the US) by the end of 2006. This despite, of course, approximately 1500 miles of border between BC/Washington/Idaho/Alberta/Montana/Saskatchewan/N.Dakota/Manitoba etc where one can just stroll across the line in the lone prairie between official border crossings with no one in sight for miles...... Sheesh.
