Remember, if you buy anything made in Mexico or the U.S. then you don't have to pay duty!

What Canadian citizens currently need to enter the United States by land
Currently, Canadian citizens, including children, DO NOT require a passport to enter the United States by land.

Canadian citizens should, however, carry documents that demonstrate their identity and citizenship. The following documents are some accepted forms of identification:

A birth certificate; and
A driver’s licence.
Oral declarations of identity and citizenship may be accepted, but it is recommended that travellers carry identification.

Canadian citizens will not require a passport or other secure document to enter the United States at land ports of entry until summer 2008 at the earliest.
