Can you enter Canada using an expired Canadian passport?

Yes, in some cases. Many US customs agents only ask for U.S. identification, if you're driving or walking across the border. Since a passport is only ever issued to a citizen, an expired passport would be rebuttable proof of citizenship, which is better than having a driver's license (which can be obtained by a resident alien, in some states).

Do you need a passport to drive from Canada to the US?

Not for a US Citizen, it is not currently required, but it is expected to be in the near future. Currently all you need is photo ID and birth certificate. You really should have a passport whenever you go out of the country. Only an ID and birth certificate is needed but if your looking to go abroad, then you must apply and have a passport with you. :)

Do you need a passport when you leave the US?

When you are not a citizen of the USA a passport is usually required to enter the US. However, for many years citizens of the USA, Canada and several other western hemisphere countries did not need a passport to enter the US. Because of increased security procedures, even US citizens must have a passport or passport card to reenter the US across the US-Canada land border or by sea from the Caribbean after 18 May 2009. Passports have been needed for all entrants by air for a year before that.


How can you get your friend with no birth certificate into Canada?

Your friend cannot travel across international borders if she does not have adequate documentation. First of all, a birth certificate will not help you get across an international border. If she does not have a passport, US passport card, "enhanced" drivers license or "enhanced" non-driver ID, then she will not be permitted to enter Canada.
