Currently, Canadians need a passport or an Enhanced Driver's License or an Enhanced Identity Card to enter the US. Do not attempt to enter the US to work or marry without a visa. Otherwise, to simply visit, you do not need a visa. There are also special situations if you are a minor and traveling in a group.

When you enter Canada, a border services officer may ask to see your passport and a valid visa (if you are arriving from a country from which one is required). If you are a United States citizen (U.S.), you do not need a passport to enter Canada; however, you should carry proof of your citizenship such as a birth certificate, a certificate of citizenship or naturalization or a Certificate of Indian Status, as well as a photo ID. If you are a permanent resident of the U.S., you must bring your permanent resident card with you.

The Western Hemisphere Travel Initiative is a result of the Intelligence Reform and Terrorism Prevention Act of 2004 (IRTPA), requiring all travelers to present a passport or other document that denotes identity and citizenship when entering the U.S. A passport or a NEXUS Card are two of the seven options of documents required to enter the US from Canada. I suggest you check those sites before your trip to see if any of the information changes.

This would usually depend if you are to Travel by Air or By land or sea. For Air Travel to Canada for US citizens, you need your passport, if you are to travel by Sea or land, you can use your passport book, or passport card, NEXUS card, or your Enhanced Driver's license or Green Card, However, This may depend also on your age, Minors below 16 can travel with parent's letter of permission with birth certificate, usually they don't ask for IDs when you are a minor.

this would depend on where the tourist is going, is this tourist FROM Canada, or is he/she travelling from Another Country THROUGH Canada, or is this person coming from Canada to say the USA, then yes, as long as they have a VALID passport.

What are the air travel requirements WITHIN the US States for a Canadian citizen who has already entered the USA with a valid Canadian passport through land for a visit?

There are no requirements for Canadians traveling in the US just as US citizens don't need a passport to go to Canada although that is changing. Once you enter the US, you have met all the requirements according the US Border Control and the INS. You can travel freely just as any US citizen could. Of course for flying you would need some type of government ID just as a US citizen would to board a flight.

If you are in Canada with a Valid work permit and a passport from a country that requires a visitor visa what do you need to enter the US and then get back into Canada?

It depends what country your passport is from. Some countries don't need visas to enter the US temporarily, but most do. Search "visitor visa to US" for a list of countries. Multi-EntryCanadian visas allow visitors/workers/students with visa requirements to travel to foreign countries and back. Single-entry visas allow visitors to travel within the continental North America and back without requiring a new visa as long as all other requirements are met and they have legal status inside Canada.
