[/li][li]In order to enter Canada you MUST have a government issued identification with your picture on it. A drivers license or passport will work just fine.
[/li][li]If you have any other identification such as a birth certificate it is suggested that you bring it with you.
[/li][li]It is suggested that you not dress as if to attract questioning. i.e.: Legalize marijuana or White power T-shirts.
[/li][li]When talking to border guards be respectful and answer all of their questions completely and honestly and you will not have any problems.
The same rules apply to re-enter the United States.
I strongly suggest you bring a passport. It will make the process go a lot smoother and faster.
