As long as the birth certificate is a certified copy (issued by the state, not a hospital) and includes the parent's names, it will most likely be accepted. In some states (i.e. Florida) the short form already includes the names of the parents. However, some states have short form birth certificates that include very little information. In that case, you will need to order a long form from the state where the birth occurred. For your reference, starting January 1, 2008, you will need a passport to go to Canada.

You used to be able to Canada with just a birth certificate until around 2011 when the laws changed. However you need a passport to travel pretty much anywhere outside the US now and you can use your birth certificate and license or state i.d. to get a passport. You need a visa to travel to a few places and you need 4 duplicates of your visa if you travel to Africa.

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.
