Alaska to/fro

Can anyone tell if you actually need a passport to cross over to and return thru canada? I dont have one or want one but if we decide to go up that way need to know if there is an alternative to getting one. We have been thru southern quebec and wife want nothing to do with that area again, so since I wont travel out of the US I dont need the PP. This would be a 1 time trip in out.

TIA Hank

    Don't think they will even let you back into the US without a passport. I know I can't cross the border without a passport.

    You can also get a passport card that is only good for Canada, Mexico and the Caribbean for $35 plus some other fees. Book type costs $100 I think.

    Some states have enhanced driver's license that can be used in place of a passport. There is only a few states though.
