Royal Scots Dragoon Guards in Buffalo, January 24th

Yeesh! On a Thursday. Are the passport laws in place at that time? As my passport expired and I can't actually prove I'm Canadian otherwise. The English birth certificate just doesn't cut it.

From the Western Hemisphere Travel Initiative page:


"Currently, U.S. Customs and Border Protection (CBP) officers may accept oral declarations of citizenship from U.S. and Canadian citizens seeking entry into the United States through a land or sea border. However, as of January 31, 2008:

• Oral declarations of citizenship alone will no longer be accepted
• U.S. and Canadian citizens ages 19 and older will need to present a government-issued photo ID, such as a driver’s license, along with proof of citizenship, such as a birth certificate or naturalization certificate
• Children ages 18 and under will only be required to present proof of citizenship, such as a birth certificate
• Passports and trusted traveler program cards - NEXUS, SENTRI and FAST - will continue to be accepted for cross-border travel"

So things won't start getting screwy until a week later.
